Activity- class will split into groups of three and get a shuttle and racket between each other in there groups and I will have set out three cones on there court and they have to start at base position and then lean into the side the feeder with the shuttle chooses to throw to with there good foot and return the shuttle with a forehand or backhand clear and repeat while taking turns to get a shot at doing each role.
Adaptions/Progressions- If it is too easy they can chose to carry this out while doing a rally of four hits then switch to the next person behind the one going first of returning the feed. If it is too hard take the racket out the drill and just try to catch the shuttle focusing on the footwork.
