Tournament Tough: Monday

Today we there was an awesome group of players in Tournament Tough.
  
Z, Stacie, & Dave, with a little help from Jill Akiyama, ran 29 juniors around in the indoor facility on a wet and dreary afternoon.  We worked on point play for the first 90 minutes,running through different half-court drills involving baseline, transition, and net play.  Then for the next 30-minutes we did a little drilling and conditioning before finishing with a 3-court game of Rush&Crush!

It was Epic.


In this video we have a few of the juniors playing Feed & Approach.  In this game, the "challengers" have to feed a ball to the "champion" on the baseline--and then approach the net.

This drill/game allows the "challengers" to practice timing their "split steps." It also encourages work on their volleys.  On the "champion"-side, players work on making passing shots from the baseline.
