This is when we’re talking about locations for dinking, service locations, return locations picking spots that put you in the best position. During this time, we’re also developing court awareness, understanding the X, and shifting with Play.
Lesson 11+Lesson 11 and beyond is when we’re working on consistency in all of my clients bag of tricks. This is where if my client is interested and has the mobility or even a small amount of mobility we initiate higher level IQ Shots LIKE THE Ernie, ATP, tweeter ; the trick Shots . This is also where we develop team confidence. Ability to play successfully with a variety of partner styles. And begin Tournament training and partner selection that complements their game.
