Rally with control stroke and the green ball. The marker helps players not to hit too hard.

The players try to use the control stroke to slow down the ball and gain control For this, the coach marks out the terrain with yellow lines: Small court, close to the net.

The players stand side by side at the baseline and the coach in front of them at the service-line. The coach throws a foam ball to the students, and the students hit forehand and backhand strokes back to the coach so that he can catch it. This is challenging at the beginning since it requires precision.

Now things get dynamic: the students roll a ball back and forth with the racquet one hitting cross court the other down the line using forehands and backhands. The difference between down the line and cross now becomes clear.

From the very beginning, the players should get used to the correct footwork. To do this, the players roll the ball to each other with a forehand motion. Correct posture is also important when hitting from the run. The larger softball is rolled diagonally to the forehand. After hitting, the students move to the middle using side-steps. Important note from the instructor: bend at the knees with the upper body upright (do not bend over).

The teenagers roll a large foam ball in a figure 8 pattern, with one hand for the forehand and with 2 hands for the backhand.

In the next step, the students play with a foam ball back and forth across the net within a marked area. They make sure to hit the ball in front of their body. A marking line helps them to do this.Players try to rally on their own over the net.

The students try to set up a rally in the small court with the orange balls. They alternate forehand and backhand if possible. Control strokes are allowed.
