Training[]

  • Training your legs is the basic of the basics!
  • Strong legs are the foundation of tennis! If you neglect training them, your power, control, judgment and persistence will all grow dull too. Don't think I'm gonna lose to that Japanese! *(Siegfried)
  • Even after enduring the grueling practice menu, there are many who go running on their own accord to improve their basic body strength.

Uniform Fashion Check[]

On their sleeve is the national emblem of the eagle. Since Europe's olden times, the eagle stood at the top of the food chain and was a symbol for invincibility. This traditional design is on both sleeves.

The black uniform has red lines. Putting pressure on the opponent is the core idea of this design. The coaches have a different, cheaper design that makes for functional movement.

:A few words from the representatives!

  • Tezuka: This uniform has a functional design and is easy to move in. When I put it on, my feelings become stronger.

Trivia[]

  • Any athelete who comes into the team arrogant or with anxiety will be kicked off the team.
  • It is possible the introduction of the Germany team is a tribute to Hiroki Yasumoto as he voiced Germany in the anime series Hetalia.
  • They are the only team from the "big 4" that lost a match and several games. Switzerland, France, and Spain all won their Pre-World Cup Exhibition Match without dropping a single game.
