2 Cross Court Forehand 1 Short Attacking Ball – Basket Feed
In this drill, players will work on consistency and shot selection under pressure. The goal is to hit two deep cross-court forehands to a target and then respond to a shorter attacking ball with precision and strategic options.
The drill:
- The coach feeds the first ball into the player’s forehand side.
- The player returns two deep forehands aiming for the orange-marked target area on the opposite side of the court.
- After the two cross-court forehands, the coach feeds a third ball, slightly shorter.
- The player now has the option to either:
- Hit a deep down-the-line forehand, or
- Execute a cross-court angled shot.
