Today we're introducing two major enhancements to the TennisOne website and your membership. First, we have a Search Engine! TennisOne contains a vast archive of tennis instruction. But as many of you have told us (thanks for your input) over the years, it's hard to find what you want in such a big online library. The TennisOne search tool works like Google's search tool. The search tool tries to figure out what you're looking for and returns a prioritized list of results, with the links at the top of the list most likely to satisfy your search request.

For more details on how the Engine works, click here.

How to Use It

The Search Engine retrieves information in three categories, articles, ProStrokes, newsletters.

• Broad or narrow search. You can do a broad search for all the articles/newsletters of a particular writer or a particular concept (doubles), or a pinpoint search on a subject that might been written about just a few times (Hoad serve).

• Stroke video search. The Search Engine will help you quickly identify whether we have a particular player or stroke in our site. However, for a more precise search for a particular stroke (e.g., Sampras forehand crosscourt), continue to use the ProStroke Gallery page.

Preferences

By default, the Search Engine attempts to retrieve 5 articles, 5 ProStrokes, and 5 newsletters. TennisOne members have the option of setting the number of results returned. Go to My TennisOne and select the Preferences tab. There you will be able to set the number of Search results you prefer.

Favorites

The second major enhancement is a means of bookmarking your favorite TennisOne content. You can do this by clicking on the Add to Favorites link at the top of each page. When you click on that link, it will bring up the My Favorites section of My TennisOne, which is the area reserved for your information, preferences and selected content. Here you can type in a description of your Favorite or bookmarked item, and then click the SAVE button.

TennisOne Recommends

Even with the new search tool, it's difficult to know what to select in the vast TennisOne archive. The staff is helping out here by recommending some of our favorite articles each month. This appears on the right hand side of your search results page.

Notice Regarding "Virus" Email
