Doubles Tip:

How to counter the lob with variety

There’s actually only one strategy that can work against a good player or doubles team who lobs. That is to change it up & use variety with your shot selection.

Remember, they like to be in a rhythm. If you’re hitting them the same ball in the same spot every time, they’ll never miss. They’ll also keep you pinned way back in the court on the baseline.

Instead…

Change the depth of your shots;

Change the spins you’re using;

Change the direction you’re hitting to – give them forehands and backhands;

Change the height your hitting with – make them hit from their ankles and their shoulder.

When I watch tournament and league players try to beat a lobber, they never use all of these options. Try it in your next match against a lobber to break their rhythm.

Stroke Technique with Coach Michael

Does your child swim independently but need a swim coach to work on stroke technique?

Preteam- Wednesdays at 6-6:30pm

Guppy training with Coach Maddie

Thursdays 10:30-11am

“Is your toddler ready to participate in a group? Let’s have some fun with no need for parents to get in the water!

We want swimmers to have fun, but still learn skills. For younger children who are brave enough to step away from their parents and join a class without being held the whole time Guppies Toddler class is a perfect way to learn safety skills while having a great time.

Instructors will play games, do water exploration activities, and teach swim skills through play.”
