Step 1: Read it
SQL for MySQL Developers: Read Chapters 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Step 2: Do it
Install MySQL Community Server and MySQL Workbench (done as part of MySQL Tutorial).
Current releases are 5.6.26 for Server and 6.3.4 for Workbench.
Create and load the Tennis Club database (done as part of MySQL Tutorial).
For yourself list the tables and the primary key of each table for the Tennis Club database (described in Chapter 2).
Go to http://www.r20.nl/ and download the SQLforMySQL_V1_All_SQL_Statements.txt file.
When the book has an example for trying out a SQL example, DO IT. I find having the above text file open in an editor helps.
Step 3: Practice it
