    · Seniors often struggle due to fear of failure and “last chance” thinking

    · Visualization and metaphors (like “holding a beach ball” or “thumb on the tape”) are more effective than technical step lists

    · Small progressive drills build confidence and skill with less overwhelm

    · Having a tactile “reset” position for strokes helps players retain changes under match pressure

    · Inspirational real-world story: a 72-year-old reserve player moves from team six to team one using these methods
