Don't be afraid to make adjustments on the fly when playing out points. Choking up on the racquet grip gives you more control of the racquet face and the ability to handle faster paced shots more efficiently.

In an effort to help my students conceptualize the idea of spin and direction, I have them view the tennis ball as the face of a clock. I have them choose a number for the type of directional spin they would like to impart on the ball. Visualization is a very effective learning tool.

When playing out points, it is wise to have a strategy for each shot during each point. Players who employ a 'hit & hope' strategy seldom come out on top. My emphasis here is that you consciously think about direction, power, spin and trajectory for every shot you hit. The more you practice playing with a plan for each shot, the less conscious your decisions will be.

The key to a good poach is to know where your partner is serving and then to start moving between the moment that the serve bounces and the returner strikes the ball.

When you are at the net and the ball comes directly at you, our first tendency is to back up out of the path of the ball. When this happens, we lose direction and control on our retaliatory volley. Try to stay forward and push your racquet toward the incoming ball. Good things will happen.
