Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the value of an external device which would eliminate the tendency of beginning tennis players to bend the elbow when learning the forehand and backhand drives. The device was designed and constructed as a cradle-type, posterior elbow brace to hold the elbow in a position of one hundred eighty degrees extension.
