1. Method for calculating a repeatability index of gestures and shots of a player striking a tennis ball with a racket, wherein it comprises:
- a preliminary step a) in which behavioural data of the racket are generated during tests, the behavioural data indicating first playing data related to gestures and shots, such as vibrations, linear acceleration and angular velocity of the racket, as a function of parameters including at least several types of hits,a playing step b) in which the player strikes the balls with the racket and in which second playing data related to gestures and shots of the player, such as vibrations, linear acceleration and angular velocity of the racket, are measured,an analysis step c) in which;
the second playing data are compared with the behavioural data,the type of hit is deduced for each shot made in the playing step b), andfor each type of hit, the value of the repeatability index of the player'"'"'s gestures and shots is determined by comparing the second playing data with each other, the repeatability index indicating the player'"'"'s ability to repeat the hit type identically.
