Tennis: Consistency - Moving Closer to Net

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

DESCRIPTION

  • Coach and player rally together in the cross-court direction.
  • Player starts from the service line and hits only volleys.
  • After every shotthe player moves forward closer to the net.
  • After reaching the net the player moves back after every hit.

COACHING POINTS

  • The player works on volleys’ consistency while rallying.
  • Changing position after every shot forces the player to maintain good footwork and also to adjust to the incoming ball.
  • The focus should be on control instead of power to learn how to keep the ball in play.
  • Coach should remind the player to avoid unnecessary backswing and add some backspin to the shots to increase control and keep the ball consistently in given direction.
