Tennis: Drawing the opponent in: Point play

Players are working in threes with player 1 working in the whole court against players 2 and 3.

Players are rallying co-operatively but with players 2 and 3 moving player 1 around the court a little. Player 1 can hit to either side in any order.

If player 1 hits a ball that lands long they get 2 points, beyond the service line but before the longline they get 1 point, in the service box they get no points.

Should they miss a ball long or wide they get minus 1 point, and in the net minus 2 points.

Players 2 and 3 must count out loud, and player 1 is trying to get to 25 points as quickly as possible. The length of time it takes is timed and players can compete within themselves in the 3 or combined against other courts if the group is larger.

Players get into pairs. Each pair takes on another pair in a cross court competition. Players take it in turns to hit the ball deep into the coned area.

Every time a ball is hit short the receiving player can hit a winner down the line to score a point.

The players who hit the short ball can try to recover and return the down the line winner. If they manage to return the shot they do not lose a point.

Next rally starts again.

Set up as shown with three cones close to the net, with these cones being the player's target on their second shot. Player and coach stand at the net, and the coach feeds the ball to the forehand side.

The Player hits a forehand volley to the coach who then hits it back to the backhand side, where the player must react quickly to backhand drop volley the ball cross-court, aiming to get the ball in between the three cones.
