Tennis: Control the stance

Player serves from one side. Coach feeds random ball as a return. Player reacts and hits the next shot to the open space.

Use 1/2 court to play 2 feeders per court basket in the middle of the base line. Feeders 1st feed a short ball followed by a lob player on the other side hit the 2 shots and move out of the way for the next player.

Player starts in the middle and sprints to the deuce corner, imitating a forehand stroke. Immediately, the player changes direction and sprints all the way to the other corner to finish imitating backhand stroke.

Player starts in the middle behind the baseline. Coach feeds balls alternately to the forehand and backhand. The player should move in a smile shape around the baseline, with the tops of the smile being where they hit the ball and the bottom of the smile their recovery position.

Coach demonstrates proper footwork to hit forehand inside out/in. Players try to imitate this footwork without hitting the ball to make it more natural. Players take big cross over step behind and jump from both legs to achieve stable position before imitating hitting the ball.

Players should be encouraged to splitstep after each shot, and to use the correct footwork and racket technique on each and every shadow. Being under no pressure with a ball to hit, there is no excuse for poor posture or an off balanced body!

This game requires two or more teams. Both teams are trying to place the ball into the opposing team's hoop, however they are not allowed to run with the ball. On receiving the ball, the player must touch the ground first with the ball and pass it to a team-mate within 3 seconds.

Within each zone, there are approximately four people each with a tennis ball which they have to dribble with whilst staying in their zone. The aim is to try and kick the other persons ball out of the zone whilst you keep yours in the zone. The last person in the zone is the winner.
