Nail, Tennis coach

DESCRIPTION

  • Player serves from the deuce side.
  • Coach feeds ball to the deuce side.
  • Player slides to the ball and executes forehand stroke.

COACHING POINTS

  • Many inexperienced players try to run to every ball which makes a solid point of contact much harder to achieve.
  • With sliding, players can control their own body and the racquet so hitting outside the sidelines is not a problem and it won't deteriorate stroke’s quality.
  • Additionally player has to remember that during the match different returns will happen so practicing serve with sliding after the delivery is an ability that can be crucial while playing against a good opponent.
