Volume 4:
Decision-Making Drills
Tennis is an open sport requiring quick decisions.
This volume breaks these
decisions down into 2 categories: judging incoming
balls and decisions on
balls we are about to hit. This video demonstrates
why and how players
should develop their decision-making skills right
from the start. It is
divided into 5 sections:
• Decision-Making Is for Everyone
• Make Decisions Early
• Learning by Self-Rating
• Verbalize Decisions
• Advanced Split-Second Decisions
(Length: 49 minutes)
Decision-Making Drills $29.95 (VCTDM)
Volume 5:
Game-Based Learning
Tennis is a game and should be learned and played
in the context of the
game. Good form and technique are helpful for long-term
improvement, but are
not essential if the initial goal is having fun and
playing. In fact, many
would argue that emphasizing form over everything
else is a sure-fire way to
make someone lose interest. The 4 sections cover:
• Adapting Drills for Beginners
• Game-Based Technique Correction
• Fun at the Net
• Practicing Shot Combinations
(Length: 37 minutes)
Game-Based Learning $29.95 (VCTGBL)
Volume 6:
Game-Based Drills
As mentioned previously, tennis is a game and should
be learned in the
context of the game. Remember that thousands of children
every day learn
basketball by playing schoolyard hoops. There isn‚t
much technique, just a
heavy dose of hustle, motivated by competitive fire.
The dozens of extremely
innovative drills and games contained in this volume
of "Game-Based Drills"
are divided into 3 sections:
• Creative Learning Drills
• Game-Based Doubles
• Competitive Large Group Drills
(Length: 44 minutes)
