Traditional winners but with a partner the whole time. So if one person misses, BOTH partners must touch either the back fence, side fence or net before they can hit a ball in the next point. Stay in until a winner is hit on you, then they switch out with the next team waiting in line at the net post.
Keep the feeds quick. As soon as a point ends, feed the next ball in order to give the other team a great shot at a winner.
Encourage kids to get creative with the types of winners they hit. If both players ran to the net to touch, try a lob. If both ran to the back fence to touch, try a drop shot. Be creative and read the right shot.
Tennis demands a unique combination of endurance, power, agility, and flexibility. Physical preparation determines how long careers last and how players perform when it matters most.
Ecological dynamics is transforming tennis coaching. This constraints-led approach develops adaptable, creative players who can solve problems in competition, not just execute drilled patterns.
The one-handed backhand is becoming rare, but when executed well, it remains one of tennis's most elegant and effective shots. Is it a dying art or a tactical advantage?
