DESCRIPTION

In this drill the players start in the tram line. With the coach feeding the first ball from the basket the first player hits a controlled forehand back to the player at the net who in turn plays the ball in to the open court for the player to run onto the ball and hit a winner down the line. Player then runs around the cone and returns back to the queue.

COACHING POINTS

  • The use of a player can be an option for the coaches that are not able to keep up a rally or return a controlled ball into the open court.
  • As players move sideways they must take the last step towards the ball at contact.
  • This style of drill is a good variation for the coaches that lack the ability or the confidence to rally with the players they coach so if the players are good use one of the players to be the live ball returnee.
