Tennis: Catch The Partner

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

DESCRIPTION

  • Two players face each other.
  • Players are only allowed to use shuffle steps.
  • Player A tries to move to the side to "break the line" with partner.
  • Player B's goal is to maintain this imaginary line by reacting to opponent's change of direction.


COACHING POINTS

  • This works on your ability to quickly change direction but at the same time, the player improves perception and dynamic positioning.
  • To achieve the goal in this drill, player has to maintain sharp focus and has to work really hard physically to deal with high-intensity.
  • The closer the players are to each other, the more difficult it will be for the player B to maintain the line.
