Tennis: The Wall

Sportplan has been very helpful in guiding me through my first year...
Bill, Newly qualified coach

DESCRIPTION

4 players 2 at the net and 2 at the baseline.

Coach feeds the ball in to the baseliners and the point is played out.

The volleyers can hit anywhere, however the baseliners cannot hit to the same volleyer twice in a row.

After 2 volleys the baseliners are then allowed to lob.

The winner is the first team to 11 points, after this the teams swap over.

COACHING POINTS

  • Important for vollyers to stay alert, keep low and contact the ball in front.
  • For more advanced players vollyers must hit the ball deeper towards the baseline.
  • This will also help develop the baseliners ability to change the direction of the ball.In addition the baseliners have less time to react and therefore have to be extra alert and move well.
