This hard work, speed and reactions session aims to help you get your players back in the game.
Using the split step players will create a strong starting position from which they can explode, either towards the forehand or the backhand side. Using the predatory split step position your players will work in pairs to retrieve the ball as quickly as possible, as it dropped in front of them and then later thrown over one of their shoulders to chase down and retrieve.
After heightening their reactions players should be prepared to react quicker to visual stimuli, exploding from the split step stance and meet the ball with time to adjust their position and strike a powerful return shot.
