I hope that everyone had a good long weekend and that we are all ready to get back to work.
So over the past couple of weeks, I have noticed a difference in the way the kids hit the ball when doing simple rallying drills and hitting the ball when playing points. The kids tend to tighten up and go for a lot safer shot when playing points, which comprimises the quality and the technique of the stroke. We will be playing more points from different situations on the court, where we will be looking for the kids to hit the ball properly with good technique everytime they have a chance to. Hopefully playing more points will get the kids to loosen up a little and get more comfortable hitting the ball properly more often.
We will also continue to stress how important the reaction after the serve is, and the reaction on the return as well, since these are the two shots we always start the point with.
