Player stands behind the baseline. Coach faces the player. Coach throws the ball. Player hits forehand/backhand and moves the right/left leg forward. Player’s goal is to get to the service line without any additional steps.
In this drill player works on a weight transfer. Releasing the energy by moving the body forward is a primary step to possess powerful and consistent strokes. Generating the pace only from the racquet is an easy step to overworking one body part, missing more balls on the long run and having chronic injuries. This simple move can be also practised without hitting so coach has to encourage players to work on this aspect at home.
