Tennis: Topspin Lob

The coach feeds a deep ball to hitters.

Players must hit a topspin lob and then return to the back of the line after their shot.

With more advanced players the coach should feed the balls from the back of the opposite side of the court.

-Start off by placing a hoop in between the service line and the net(as shown in the picture).
-Players 1 and 2 are playing out the point whilst player 3 is trying intercept the ball that player 2 is hitting.
-The person at the net has to have at least one foot in the hoop at any one time.
-The player on their own has to avoid the person at the net by hitting all the balls wide or lobbed. If the point is won by a volley extra points are awarded.
-First one to 11 points and then swap around.

Player 1 must feed player 2 with a lob (deep if possible).

Player 2 must hit the smash and play out the point.

NOTE: The ball must not bounce on the side of player 2 throughout the point. Player 1 can hit drives or lobs after the initial lob feed.

First player to reach 11 points wins.

-The game has two teams of four players each.
-Each team consists of two lobbers and two smashers.The smashers must stand in their respective service courts.
-Points are scored every time a lob falls between the base line and the service line.The baseliners must hit the ball after one bounce. Points are lost as in normal tennis.
-First team to 5 wins.
-The baseliners and the smashers swop over for the next game.
