Sportplan has been very helpful in guiding me through my first year as a High School Coach.
In Nick Saviano's book, Maximum Tennis, Andre Agassi is said to have a very 'soft' left hand on his backhand, and yet often I hear and read many tips suggesting a very dominant, or active, supporting hand for the two handed backhand. Especially now, with the more semi-open stanced players, what should I suggest when teaching the backhand to developing players?

We have some players on a girls high school team who hit well, have good form and serve well but do run into confusion sometimes with remembering scores, hearing instruction when playing matches and processing speed can be a challenge as well because these players have language-based learning disabilities. They are strong players but I need some advice about best practices for lessons/coaching that will bring them the most success on the court. Are there specific drills/coaching techniques that are helpful? Also, I'm going to purchase some wrist score keeper bracelets unless someone knows of a better way for them to keep track of the score discreetly and quickly. (wrist or racket)

Hi,I have hired a coach who teaches my son all the basic shots and drills. He is 7 years old and his progress is good. I am looking for a weekly planner BCS we don't have any coaching plans now. Right now we do feeding and rally but cannot measure his progress in the game. We are looking for a planner to follow daily and measure his game progress. Also looking for all court drill videos for improving the movements.
How should I put more topspin and depth and height on my forehand shots, I want to get it more consistent and practice putting more power on them.

Psychology in tennis HELP!!! I have a daughter who is an excellent player who only started playing tennis seriously last yr at the age of 13. She is a much better player than all the people she has completed against in matches but always loses due to over hitting and getting upset if the wrong call is made (which happens frequently due to how fast she hits and serves) do we need some sort of psychological help for this. what is the best way to get this... books, councilling ??? any help would be most appreciated thanks

Four technical nightmares creep into club tennis every season. Here are the drills that banish them for good.
Indoor courts give players less time and less room. Help them sharpen their split step, shorten their swing and stay calm, and winter becomes a season of real progress.
A tiebreak is a short sprint where every point is worth the same as a break of serve. The players who win them are rarely the ones who hit hardest. Here is how to coach the patterns, habits and scoreboard thinking that win the big points.
