Offensive Shots - Mix it

Aim: To improve the inside out forehand and backhand shots.

How: The inside out forehand is a where the ball is returned to the backhand side but the player has enough time to run around the backhand and hit a forehand shot instead.

To start the drill player 2 hits the ball to player 1's forehand, out wide, player 1 returns the ball down the line, Player 2 then hits the ball to the backhand side but closer to the center. This will give player 1 enough time to run around the backhand and hit an inside out forehand instead.

Swap roles and repeat the drill.

Progressions:

  • Allow player 2 to mix the feeding.
  • Allow player 1 the opportunity to player either a backhand or an inside out forehand.

Coaching Points:

  • Make sure the grip and techniques are correct for both forehand and backhand shots.
