Work on technical and physical fundamentals whilst ensuring that every athlete is aware of what to focus on and is able to improve. This session is easy to run and requires minimal equipment or space.
What's in the session?
The session begins with a dynamic warm-up ensuring that the children are moving at all times, working with others and are having fun. The session begins with basic movement patterns looking to get into the correct stroke positions. It then transitions into looking at open and closed stances, covering what each position looks like and explains which equipment can help get your player into the correct position.
The session then develops, covering how your player can control their backspin and how to learn the basics of serving by breaking it down into simple steps.
Indoor courts give players less time and less room. Help them sharpen their split step, shorten their swing and stay calm, and winter becomes a season of real progress.
A tiebreak is a short sprint where every point is worth the same as a break of serve. The players who win them are rarely the ones who hit hardest. Here is how to coach the patterns, habits and scoreboard thinking that win the big points.
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.
