Tennis - Down The Line (Backhand)

Aim: The down the line shot can be used to break the pattern of cross court shots and catch an opponent off balance, and make the opponent run a considerable distance to reach a shot that is traveling a much shorter distance.

Coaching Points:

  • Can be hit on the forehand and backhand
  • Be sure to hit the ball deep towards the baseline
  • Remember you are hitting over the highest part of the net so allow for it.
