Tennis: Keep Control With Strong Arm

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

DESCRIPTION

  • The coach stands in the service box on the deuce side
  • The coach and player rally using only volley
  • The coach moves the player by hitting cross-court, center, down the line, center and cross-court shots in given pattern
  • The player moves and responds with all volleys back to coach

COACHING POINTS

  • In this drill, the player works on controlling their own volleys whilst moving
  • Playing drills based on rallies inside the service box is a demanding environment both from the technical and physical perspective
  • Because of the short reaction time, the player learns how to quickly adjust to the incoming ball and because of this he has to perform numerous shots in a short period of time, their endurance will be developed at the same time
  • The coach should give a specific number to achieve in each set to make sure that the player has a goal in mind and he always tries to go for more, even when feeling tired
