Week 28

Hi everyone,

This week and the following week we have the bubbles coming down so we will be asking all the kids to show up on their scheduled days for the next two weeks as we will have a court or two less while the bubbles are coming down.

During the next two weeks we will be doing many different point situations and seeing how the kids using all the things that we have worked on.

Week 27

Hello everyone,

This week we will go back to working on maintaining the rally cross-court and looking to keep the ball in play for as long as possible. We will also be looking to come to the net of off a shorter ball and using what we worked on the last few weeks in terms of net play and appoach shots.

Also I just want to remind everybody to let me know if they are going to miss a day since we have full enrollment every day, and if kids want to do make ups, it would be helpful to know if we will have space that day.

Week 26

Hello everyone,

So the kids are showing progress in ball control from the net and improvements in overheads as well. We will continue to work on ball control and grips from volleys, but now we will add the approach as a way to come to the net and actually get into volleying situation.

We will have the kids work on transitioning to the net at the right time, and looking for the right type of ball from a rally situation to come in on.

Week 25

Hello,

The kids are showing progress in terms of volleying and being able to maintain the rally from the volley position to a groundstroke, and we will continue to work on the same skills this week as well. 

As for the overheads, they require a lot more work, especially the movement for the overhead and having the right grip for it. Lobs are getting better as well as the kids' feeding skills.

We will be putting kids into different point situations than the previous week, but the emphasis is still going to be to come to the net and finish the point off at the net.

Week 24

Hello everyone,

We have reviewed the positioning and getting the racquet back early, and making sure we are as balanced as possible when hitting the ball over the past two weeks. Now it is time to review volleys and overheads, the correct grip and coming to the net.

We will be drilling these things, as well as putting them into point situations.
