Use this plan to toughen up your players’ defensive game, and improve how they take the sting out of their opponent's shots to get them back in the point.
Often players spend a disproportionate amount of time practicing attacking shots, but don't spend enough time on their defensive game. For example do your players know what to do when they are pushed behind the baseline by a big-hitter, or are being forced to play shots at full stretch?
Never say die
That's why this plan teaches players where and how to return the ball to keep the point alive, so they never say die!
