Strategy, Movement & Shot Selection:
We encourage pairs/doubles partners to sign up for this class. Or, single players who are looking to up their doubles game. Players will play actual games (a set) under the watchful eye of Coach Forrest. Forrest will intermittently pause play to guide players in recognizing missed opportunities, and better shot selection, court positioning, and movement patterns. If a player’s technique is causing consistent difficulties, Forrest will address them as much as possible within the parameters of the movement and strategy goals. In other words, stroke technique is emphasized less and proper court positioning, movement, shot selection, and strategy is emphasized.
About Coach Forrest: Forrest has extensive background with both competitive play and instruction. He played very competitive juniors (8-18 yrs old) and maintained high/top state, regional, and national rankings in singles and doubles in highest competition divisions.
