Judging Approach?

Which drills would recommend to work on judging the pace and speed of a ball coming across the net? Which drills would you suggest that would teach a player how to judge the height, speed and pace of a ball coming across the net and move into position to time the return in the proper position.Thanks

Backhand grip

In Nick Saviano's book, Maximum Tennis, Andre Agassi is said to have a very 'soft' left hand on his backhand, and yet often I hear and read many tips suggesting a very dominant, or active, supporting hand for the two handed backhand. Especially now, with the more semi-open stanced players, what should I suggest when teaching the backhand to developing players?

Lost confidence in my serve-how can I get my 1st serve confidence back?

Hi, I'm a teenis player (ITF Futures level) I used to do a lot of ace as 30 or 40 % in my first serve. Then, I had an injury (ankle) and I was awhile without training. I started playing again 3 month ago, and now  I don't have any confidence in my serve. For this reason I have to play with second serves almost all matches and practises. I would like to know what can I do. I would appreciate if someone could help me in this case. Thanks.

Coaching players with language-based l.d. /dyslexia

We have some players on a girls high school team who hit well, have good form and serve well but do run into confusion sometimes with remembering scores, hearing instruction when playing matches and processing speed can be a challenge as well because these players have language-based learning disabilities. They are strong players but I need some advice about best practices for lessons/coaching that will bring them the most success on the court. Are there specific drills/coaching techniques that are helpful? Also, I'm going to purchase some wrist score keeper bracelets unless someone knows of a better way for them to keep track of the score discreetly and quickly. (wrist or racket)

I have been using Sportplan now for 3 years and can honestly say that I have never repeated the same session twice. My girls are always focused and are improving every year. Thanks Sportplan.

Debbie Cross Australia

What a fantastic tool. The Chalkboard and session tools make an unbelievable difference in making training plans in both time and organization. I will be instructing all of my assistant coaches that this tool must be used for all sessions during the season, so that we may build a club coaching resource library.
