The player rallies with coach and the player stands on the ad side. The player executes 2 backhand slice cross-court shots and 1 backhand slice down the line.
The most dominant spin in modern tennis is definitely a topspin. Players love this low-to-high motion because it allows them to hit the ball really hard and still make a lot of shots inside the court. That is why players feel comfortable hitting and responding to topspin shots but they have more troubles while dealing with other spins.
In this drill, the player works on control and consistency of backhand slice. Slice spin keeps the ball low after the bounce so it is a great solution while playing against offensive opponents. By changing the spin we can force opponent to risk more to achieve the same pressure so there is a big chance that rival will produce more mistakes.
Indoor courts give players less time and less room. Help them sharpen their split step, shorten their swing and stay calm, and winter becomes a season of real progress.
