Today’s adults have grown up in their off-school times by playing children’s games on the street and spending time with outdoor activities.

Today’s children and young people are growing in apartments, on the Internet, and they are not able to participate in regular sports activities. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), children’s physical inactivity is the fourth most important risk factor for deaths worldwide and has a negative impact on their physical, mental and social lives. According to WHO (2013), overweight and obesity in childhood cause problems such as cardiovascular diseases, sugar, movement system problems, mental problems, school failures and non-self-esteem, and children and young people between the ages of 5-17 In total, at least 60 minutes of moderate to high physical activity is required to do. These and similar benefits are among the most important goals of the policy documents of the Ministry of Youth and Sport in our country as well as the policy documents of the EU sports support.

In this context, it will be supported by its academic dimension and by bringing theoretical applications as well as practical applications, a new learning module will be introduced to tennis sport. In this way, young people will develop their social skills as well as support their academic skills as well as being a strong obstacle to their being able to lead to extra-curricular movements, formations and behaviors that may create disciplinary problems.
