What's in the session?
When making the right shots, it's important that your players have good footwork to assure good positioning when on court. Get them used to performing at a high intensity with their legs, testing them out in difficult match-like situations, with challenging exercises such as the controlled wide ball. Work on both their backhand and forehand within a rally, helping your players to reach a high level of consistency and developing their decision making.
Help your players on court and improve their footwork!
