I spend a great deal of time trying to prove the worth of Red, Orange and Green to others. But recently I decided to stop trying so hard. You see the fact is that it makes sense. It’s the other side of the coin that doesn’t!

When JP McEnroe stepped out with the Max 200G a few said … “Hey that’s crazy .. get your wooden MaxPlys out!!”  So where are we now! When they changed tennis balls from white to yellow because it helped players see them better no one batted an eyelid.

When new acrylic surfaces were introduced, and hawkeye, and sports orthotics, and polyester strings the same reaction, and yet after a few sniggers people had to eat their words. We must grasp the fact that the world does keep spinning every day and it spins forwards, not backwards and what was in the past gets replaced by what will come, a better and more considered option!

The fact is we make changes.. or as we prefer to say “evolve” all the time. So I am throwing the ball back and saying … this ROG system makes perfect sense to me and most every coach that has tried it so you “Yellow Ball Purists” .. show me why kids tennis should not evolve!!

Finally let me leave you with this quick (slightly altered) statement

“The greatest limit to mans potential is not fear or lack of opportunity, but the illusion of knowledge!”
