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.
