In sporting situations the variables related to the play are innumerable.

Coaches are increasingly required to have performance data for individual athletes in order to be able to adopt the right training methods to improve both the performance of the individual athlete and the team as a whole.

Moreover, such information becomes indispensable for the coach in choosing the tactics to be used in the various game situations that are emerging.

Racket sports games include the popular sports of tennis, squash, badminton, and table tennis. These sports are attractive at the competitive and recreational levels but the growth of sports science and the commercialization of racket sports in recent years have focused attention on improved performance and this has led to a more detailed study and understanding of all aspects of racket sports. Also, there is a confused many challenge owing to the physical demands of the game as well as the biomechanical analysis of players when performed some complex movements with rackets. In addition, racket sports requiring different training methods which could differ between elite players in different levels. Therefore, racket sports are of great interest to athletic trainers, sports researchers, physicians and strength and conditioning coaches.

It is a broad theme in Sports Science, but admittedly most evidences still deserves unaccomplished assumptions to support professional practice with no uncertainness. Therefore, the scope should approach applied studies on this field of knowledge, seeking to clarify ruler factors determining performance in sports, and suggesting former strategies to overcome athletes and/or sport modalities weakness.

Verify how science can contribute to the improvement of sports biomechanics and performance in these modalities, studying its characteristics and particularities; pointing out indicators which could help in the training and the regulation of the competition.

Understand how several health professionals make part of the sports science, how do they perform research considering their specialties, and how they develop the sports science world.
