Description and goals:

Develops approach shots, volleys and overheads, helping players move to net and finish off points. Also assists in shot selection and court coverage.

Player A and B start on the baseline. Pro will feed five balls from the other side. Player B hits return/groundstroke crosscourt on the first ball then pro feeds a short ball. Player B hits a crosscourt approach shot and comes in (Player A should come in at the same time to move as a team). Pro then feeds Player A a volley, then Player B a volley and finishes with a lob to Player A, who hits an overhead. Incoming ball dictates which target Player A and B hit to during the point. Next players rotate in.

Variations: Start feeds to other side of the court. Have players line up one up, one back. Add to the number of feeds depending on player ability. Do it as a live-ball drill with players on the other side playing out the point.

Players should focus on making a good approach shots and hitting volleys and overheads to proper targets. Make sure players move as a team when transitioning to and while at the net.
