ResettingIntermediate
Become Unattackable
10-20 min Partner Paddle, balls, court
Setup
Defender stands at the kitchen line; Aggressor stands at mid-court or the opposite NVZ line ready to attack.
Drill Instructions
1) The Aggressor hits a firm drive or speed-up at the Defender. 2) The Defender uses a soft block or reset to land the ball back into the opponent's kitchen. 3) The Aggressor continues to speed up any ball that bounces high. 4) Switch roles after 5 minutes.
Goal
Successfully reset 5 consecutive attacks into the kitchen before a point ends.
Coach Tip
Think of your paddle as a pillow, not a board; let the ball hit the paddle rather than swinging through it.
Avoid
Avoid big backswings or 'stabbing' at the ball, which causes it to pop up or fly long.
