Rachel met with coach Dan, wanting assistance with developing her backhand.

We went through a number of concepts, including rounding, reachback, the plant foot, hip engagement and weight shift. Rachel made good progress on her form and will keep focusing on back-to-front weight shift to improve her power and stability.

It was so lovely to work with Rachel - thanks for the support!

Peter met with coach Dan, seeking general help with distance and form.

Peter has a very solid base when it comes to power and technique, so we focused on minor tweaks to unlock extra distance and accuracy, including hip engagement, weight shift, grip and the reach back.

Thanks for the support Peter!

Clare met with coach Dan, wanting assistance with developing her backhand as more of a beginner.

We went through a number of concepts, including rounding, reachback, hip engagement and stance, while also being mindful of not aggravating injury and not affecting her strengths (nose angle and accuracy) if we could avoid it.

It was great to see Clare being able to throw with greater speed almost immediately.

It was so lovely to work with Clare - thanks for the support!

Nick met with coach Dan, seeking general help with distance and form.

We went through a number of concepts, including hip engagement, weight shift, grip and the reach back.

Nick is one of the top players in Australia in his age group (if not THE top player), so we were working off a high base. Nick continues to work on a fluid hip engagement and weight shift to be able to throw even further!

Thanks for the support Nick!

Robert met with coach Dan, wanting assistance with developing his backhand as more of a beginner (he throws forehands predominantly).

We went through a number of concepts, including rounding, reachback, hip engagement and stance, and immediately noticed a step-up in speed, spin and general power.

Robert is blessed with naturally good nose angle control, so that will be something that gives him extra distance as he continues to ramp up his technique.

Thanks for the support Robert!

Brenda met with coach Dan, wanting assistance with developing her backhand as more of a beginner.

We went through a number of concepts, including rounding, reachback, hip engagement and stance, and immediately noticed Brenda was able to throw without aggravating injury and with greater distance. Brenda checked in 2 weeks later after her first tournament win (congrats!) and we tweaked some of the things she learned, while also briefly going over the x-step.

It was so lovely to work with Brenda and see her confidence and ability improve.

Thanks for the support Brenda!

Tim met with coach Dan, seeking general help with distance and accuracy.

We went through a number of concepts, including hip engagement, closing off the plant foot, pulling through the line, and a flatter release. Tim already has a very solid distance base to build on, and found he was putting less effort for the same (or greater) power after trying the new techniques. If he can work on his plant foot and hip engagement, he will be throwing bombs!

Thanks for the support Tim!

Angelo met with coach Dan, and was seeking general help with his form, distance and x-step.

We went through a number of things to build on, including a closed off x-step, hip engagement, and driving down on the plant foot.

We also went over some drills to help with positive launch angle and negative nose angle, but chose to focus mainly on the areas above as the priority. Perhaps we'll follow up on these things in the next lesson!

Angelo's speed and spin improved greatly over the course of the session, and we're looking forward to seeing his improvement going forward!

Thanks for the support Angelo!

James met with coach Dan, and was seeking general help with his form, distance and x-step.

We went through a number of things to build on, including implementing a 30 degree plant foot, closed off x-step, hip engagement, reaching out (not back).

James is now looking to bring together all the things we worked through, but felt an immediate boost to power with lower effort, and he mentioned the reach out and hip engagement in particular felt like they would unlock more power going forward.

Thanks for the support James!
