Vicious Tennis

Checklist for our 1 hour beginner group:
✅ Movement drills
✅ Hand/Eye Coordination drills
✅ Hitting 300+ balls

Moving efficiently to the ball at a young age will make their transition to the intermediate group much smoother!

My coach Seba would make me do this drill non-stop for spacing, I still love this drill!

🎾 3 rounds of 70%
🎾 3 rounds of 80%
🎾 3 rounds of match intensity

Working on open stance to closed stance with Mason’s groundies last night. Shadowing these drills with the swing sleeve & then executing the drills with hand feeding. The swing sleeve really helps players speed up their racquet acceleration so we use at the start of practice & also to end for conditioning 🎾

Spacing involving a large hula hoop! Having the player clockwise around the hoop helps with spacing and also moving forward into their forehand (opposite for backhands) Reed does a decent job at hovering over the hoop to help his posture too! He’s almost 11, can’t wait to see more of his progress! 🎾

“You’re a tennis player Harry” 🎾 I often joke with the kids when they’re choosing a racquet, it will feel similar to what I think Harry Potter felt when he chose his wand…or the wand chose Harry 🧙🏽 Glad Dean was game to do this 😂
