Players must have an effective back-hand in order to compete against high level players.
That's why this session focuses on allowing players to feel comfortable with the backhand stroke and to develop automatic responses to be prepared for the performance under pressure.
What's in the Session?
We focus on improving your ability to dictate rallies by constantly changing the rhythm. Making the opponent adjust to almost every shot makes it difficult to maintain a high level of performance.
We finish by instilling confidence in using the backhand to finish the point. Most players rely on their forehand but it is important to be able to capitalize on every ball and finish the point with an offensive stroke.

Most club players practise the serve on its own and then have no idea what to do with the ball that comes back. Serve plus one is the pattern that turns a good serve into a won point.
