Abstract

The purpose of this analysis is to introduce and popularize tennis sports to people throughout West Sumatra in order to participate in tennis championships at both student, regional, and national/international levels. This research is descriptive qualitative that involved five samples. The source of the data is in the form of observations, interviews, and documentation collected in the field about the process of tennis in West Sumatra, through the scope of coaching by reviewing questionnaire data, the results of interviews, observation, and documentation. The results showed that the number of Pengcab Pesti participation that had been appointed following the Pengprov Pesti Sumbar Decree was increased, namely as many as 12 Pengcab Pesti (36%) of the 33 planned areas. At the same time, the number of athletes increased from 36 athletes to 120 athletes. Some of the reasons for the contribution of regions to managing and participating in the planned Championship are potential human resources to develop skills in the field of soft tennis and the high desire of the community to advance regional sports, exceptionally soft tennis at the national level. Besides, soft tennis skills are not much different from tennis, so learning soft tennis movements is not so difficult to master.
