This involves optimizing not only the<strong> technical factors<\/strong> of the motion, but also the <strong>settings of the wheelchair<\/strong> and the interactions between the player and his wheelchair. For several years now, the <strong>M2S laboratory<\/strong> has been collaborating with the <strong>French Tennis Federation<\/strong> to provide scientific support for the French wheelchair tennis teams as they <strong>prepare for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games<\/strong>. The aim of this collaboration is to <strong>develop scientific knowledge on the biomechanics of wheelchair tennis strokes,<\/strong> help players <strong>optimize their performance<\/strong> and <strong>prevent upper-body injuries<\/strong> (shoulder, elbow, abdominals, back). Scientific data relating to the performance of wheelchair tennis players is developing rapidly, reflecting the growing interest in this sport.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243;

Optimizing performance is therefore fundamental for paratennis players. This involves optimizing not only the technical factors of the motion, but also the settings of the wheelchair and the interactions between the player and his wheelchair. For several years now, the M2S laboratory has been collaborating with the French Tennis Federation to provide scientific support for the French wheelchair tennis teams as they prepare for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The aim of this collaboration is to develop scientific knowledge on the biomechanics of wheelchair tennis strokes, help players optimize their performance and prevent upper-body injuries (shoulder, elbow, abdominals, back). Scientific data relating to the performance of wheelchair tennis players is developing rapidly, reflecting the growing interest in this sport.CollaborationsWheelchair tennisFrench Tennis Federation : National wheelchair tennis teams &#8211; preparation for the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games Ronchin Tennis ClubSt Gr\u00e9goire Tennis Club (WTC Wheelchair Tennis Challenge)StudiesPublications<div class=\"et_pb_module dsm_advanced_tabs dsm_advanced_tabs_0\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module_inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dsm-advanced-tabs-container\" data-trigger=\"click\" data-animation=\"none\" data-inner_animation=\"&#8221;fadeInUp&#8221;\" data-deep_link=\"off\" data-image_lightbox=\"off\" data-auto_scroll_mobile=\"off\" data-anchor_link=\"off\">\n\t\t\t\t    <div class=\"dsm-advanced-tabs-wrapper\" role=\"tablist\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t <div class=\"dsm-advanced-tabs-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t    \n\t\t\t\t <\/div>\n\t\t     <\/div>\n\t\t    \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":271038,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-271100","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Biomechanics of wheelchair tennis serve - Caroline Martin<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Among wheelchair tennis players, the serve is an important weapon.
