Today's focus was to move player to around 2m from the table.
Player is more comfortable playing close to the table and there is some built in magnet that sucks the player back into her "comfort zone".
To push a player out, it trains not only a wider footwork coverage (it is very tough in high speed feeds), but also train the power of the stroke and very importantly, the confident to counter attack when being pushed out in a real match situations.
1st video is a 2 point FH, away from table:
2nd video, she uses short pimples on BH.
again, forcing her to go the 2m mark and use 2 BH and then a pivot - the idea is to go from defensive position, into winning position. I did surprise with some 4th ball, to train her sudden reaction to wide FH.
3rd video is a common close to table speed play.
Service return by using a BH flick
followed by fast ball/s into her BH. The idea here is to counter either passively or actively - depending on the pace of my feed or arc of my feed or both.
PS- she has SP backhand
Any questions - welcome to ask and I will try my best to reply.
