  • At present, slightly healthy ways of life (sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy food, stress, etc.) prevail in our society. Concurrently, rates of cardiovascular diseases causes alarm since they constitute the first cause of death in developed countries. Considering this social problem, we have conducted a study that aims to define the effects of a cardiac rehabilitation training program, based on the practice of tennis, in patients with acute coronary syndrome. Our objective was to determine the technical level achieved after the training program and to specify if improvements were made regarding accuracy comparing the pre-test and the post-test. The sample consisted of a group of six patients, of average age 53.57 ± 4.68. Systematic observation was used as an assessment tool. The shot technique and accuracy achieved were filmed and subsequently analysed with the help of observational grids previously validated. The statistical analysis of the results showed
