What is "soft tennis"?
Soft tennis is a variation of tennis that is mainly played in Asia. It uses a softer rubber ball instead of a traditional tennis ball, which results in slower gameplay. The rackets used in soft tennis are lighter, and the game is generally played with slightly different rules and techniques compared to regular tennis. The sport is often played on a smaller court, and the emphasis is on speed, skill, and precision rather than power.
