Coach stands in front of the player. Player serves wide from the deuce side before coach tosses the ball to the player's forehand. Player moves and hits forehand down the line.
Building patterns based on serve is the priority for any player. Serving wide can give players big opening on the court so they should often practice this serve. Coaches have to remember that players must execute the next shot if the return is not challenging so connecting serve with the next shot is of utmost importance in development process.

Ecological dynamics is transforming tennis coaching. This constraints-led approach develops adaptable, creative players who can solve problems in competition, not just execute drilled patterns.
The one-handed backhand is becoming rare, but when executed well, it remains one of tennis's most elegant and effective shots. Is it a dying art or a tactical advantage?
