Coach feeds the ball to player's FH or BH side. They play the point out xcourt. Whoever wins gets 1 pointt. At any time either player can " pull the trigger " down the line and if hits winner of that shot scores 2 points. Player can also score 2 points if hitting winner of the return of the down the line attempt. Otherwise only 1 point is awarded. Play to 7/11 then rotate players/ teams.
- emphasize court positioning, opponent position while decision making
- if possible hit off FH
