Solidify your foundation for all strokes. Players who can rally consistently continue to develop ball control (direction, height, distance) and technique within cooperative and competitive contexts. An emphasis is placed on developing technique and ability for groundstrokes, volley, and serve. Students should repeat this course until they can confidently control the direction and height of forehand and backhand within a full court rally.
