The population is 81 beginer tennis players in university level (18 ± 2 years) participated in this study. A sample of 67 people were taken randomly from the population using Slovin technique. Data from measurements that were done twice were tested for normality, homogenity and linearity as a condition for testing validity and reliability. Data from measurements I and II are normally distributed, homogeneous and linear. Groundstroke tennis test is valid with tscore > tstandar (187>1,67) and coefficient reliability is.821. Groundstroke tennis test is valid and reliable advice to measure groundstroke tennis basic skill for beginer tennis player at university level. The recommendation is the groundstroke tennis test be used to evaluate beginner level tennis players.
