Prepare your tennis sessions

Overview

In this demo, we’ll guide you through creating a session plan using our site’s structure and features.

Build your session with a clear structure

In this example session we include (1) On court Warm up (2) Heart of the lesson (3) End of the Session.

Step 1

Think about the topic for your session

Imagine the following scenario: you have realised that you have weaknesses in your attacking game when the ball is played in front of your feet. In this case, you want to work on your half-volley.

Step 2

Choose your playing level using TG 4-level system

Half-volleys are practiced from level 3. For this example, let’s assume that you are at Level 3 or 4.

Step 3

Select drills using a topic from the main menu

In this example we choose live ball drills. (Drills where players play with each other).

Step 4

Choose a warm-up related to your selected topic

Following the clear session structure, let’s begin with a mini-tennis warm-up by applying these filters:

  • Playing Level: Level 3 and 4
  • Topic: Mini Tennis Drills
  • Strokes: Half Volley

After applying these filters, the new results will be shown. Now, select your drill. For this example, we’ve chosen “Half Volley Singles Game”.

Step 5

Save your drill in a collection

Begin your half volley session with this first drill. To organize, click “Add to Collection” in the sidebar and give your collection a suitable name. Any additional drills you choose can then be added to this collection. (Watch the video for guidance)

Following the clear session structure, let’s move on with the main goal (heart of the lesson). We chose a live ball drill by applying these filters:

  • Playing Level: Level 3 and 4
  • Topic: Net Play Drills
  • Strokes: Half Volley

After applying these filters, the new results will be shown. Now, select your drill. For this example, we’ve chosen “Practice indirect passing shots”.

Choose a drill for the end of the session

Following the clear session structure, let’s move on with a points play (end of the session). We chose a doubles drill by applying these filters:

  • Playing Level: Level 3 and 4
  • Strokes: Half Volley
  • Focus: Playing Points

After applying these filters, the new results will be shown. Now, select your drill. For this example, we’ve chosen “Passing shot game”.

😉 Remember to save it to your collection. Click on “Add to Collection,” select “Add to Existing,” and choose your previously created collection.
