Salute to my tennis coach
Jiangxi Yadong Cement / Wang Dan

 Since my connection with tennis in 2013, I have had the privilege of meeting an amazing guide - my tennis coach, who is also the CEO of our company. He is the patriarch in charge of the company's direction and strategic planning, as well as the patient guide holding a tennis racket to knock on the door of tennis. I am both a teacher and a friend, with different identities and the same sincerity, which fills me with admiration and gratitude. I first met Coach Zhang in the workplace. He is a steady and reliable President who leads us steadily forward. And when I walked into the tennis court, he transformed into a patient and professional coach, leading us "novices" to unlock this fascinating sport step by step from scratch.
Looking back on when we were beginners, we were unfamiliar with how to grip and swing the racket weakly. Every time we hit the ball, it seemed so clumsy, but Coach Zhang was always patient and demonstrated the standard movements over and over again. From grip posture to footwork, from hitting timing to tactical coordination, he corrected every small deviation of ours meticulously and gave encouragement with gentle words. There was never a hint of perfunctory, and we never became impatient because of our clumsiness. He allowed us to find our touch through practice and build confidence through small progress.
Coach Zhang not only teaches tennis skills, but also frequently shares health tips while practicing. He teaches us how to extract and drink celery juice correctly, reminds us to pay attention to daily dietary adjustments, reminds us to balance work and rest, and emphasizes self-cultivation. Under his words, deeds, and positive influence, we not only sweat on the field to strengthen our bodies, but also gradually develop healthy habits in our daily lives, learning how to take care of our bodies and improve our quality of life.
With over a decade of dedicated guidance and selfless sharing, Coach Zhang is not only a coach on the field, but also a mentor on the path of life for us. Best regards and sincerest thanks!
