The coach feeds 3 balls to the backhand side (deep, medium, short). The player hits forehand inside in and recovers to the middle after each shot.
Forehand is a dominant stroke in tennis so players use it as often as possible. Running around the backhand is a common thing these days because players like Federer or Nadal can do bigger damage with this shot than while using backhand stroke.
In this drill, player works on forehand from the backhand side. The coach should emphasize quick footwork to achieve balanced position before the shot. Recovery after each forehand is a necessity to teach players that lack of this aspect can cost them many points.
