COACHING POINTS

Play the game where a bounce is required or allow volley. (Volley should not be knocked down)

Super-mini tennis: (drawing)

Make sure that the players place the racket head behind the ball (little to no backswing) and hit the ball back in front of the body with a small follow through. Children and beginners are allowed to make small punches. At a little more level you should not allow this. Have the players move continuously with split steps and recovery steps.

Mini tennis:

same as above, only a small back swing and adjusted or full follow through.

3/4 tennis:

same as above, only now a small back swing and a full follow through.

Baseline tennis:

Same as above, only now full back swing and full follow through.

Look for early preparations and good foot work.
