The coach (F) is just behind the service line, having a basket of balls to feed from.
Player A begins this drill just inside the baseline, opposite side of the net from the coach.
Drill:
The coach will feed balls in the following three directions:
– wide, to the player’s forehand side
– towards the baseline center
– wide, to the player’s backhand side.
The player will practice forehand drop-shots only, moving to the three spots and back to the initial position.
Note:
To make this drill more challenging, the player should be required to send her drop-shots to certain areas inside the service boxes – use cones or hula hoops as targets.
