Coach feeds the ball to the corner of the court towards the tramlines for player A to hit with a forehand shot down the court. Player A to return to starting position ready for the next feed.
Coach then feeds another ball across the court to the opposite side for Player A to hit an inside out forehand back across the court. Player returns to starting position.
Repeat drill so that Player A hits 4 shots, then joins the queue for Player B's turn.
The drill should be continuous.
Players to hit the ball on the rise or top of the bounce.
Good use of footwork to get feet around the ball.
