Nice serve. So Emma you know a great drill that Pete Sampras used to do
is toss the ball at 12 o'clock and then the coach
calls out what kind of serve it's going to be whether it's going to be kick
slice or flat. So let's try that. Okay. So i'm going to call it out when it's in
the air and you'll have to change it.
kick
see it's kind of hard right
kick
nice
flat
nice
kick
nice kicker
slice
nice one good job okay i'm gonna try okay okay
And what is this good for you we were saying earlier
It's disguise because a lot of people like when they for example when they hit
a slice some people have a tendency to throw it
a little bit to the side like for example
Angelique Kerber when she slices like she's lefty so she throws at 11 o'clock every
time and when she hits flat she's more like
12 o'clock and some people will often throw a little bit more towards
the left if they're right-handed if they do kick.
So if you can do all three from the same location it's an advantage
yeah that makes sense
slice
kick
Omg you called that so late
kick
flat
Ema let's play a game who gets two targets first okay
What do you want up or down? Up
It's up okay which side you want i'll start here
okay we'll do uh one at a time okay you have to call the color
i have two yellow ones there hold on.
which one you going for first? i'm going for purple.
Ok that's 1-0 me btw.
Are you serious?
No I'm not. Go back and put it up.
i'm going yellow okay. okay.
Are you serious?
Purple
Purple on the deuce.
Alright Ema, green, this is for the win ok
Btw if we tie 1-1 we play sudden death
winner takes all, ok green
Going for the purple.
that was close
all right Ema, red for the win red.
If we get the ball in we're going to go
up to the line grab a ball serve it again. If we miss
we go to the basket and grab a ball. Whoever empties their line first
wins the game. Let's do first serve so we have to hit it hard
and also the tendency that for example kids will have with this drill there
because it's a drill that's on time they'll start to rush but they end up
missing a lot more serves. So even though you can benefit from doing
it faster you'll miss more you end up hurting your serve. So it's
important that when people do this drill that they take their time.
All right up or down?
Up
up again which side you want deuce or ad?
I'll take deuce
That was out
I missed it
It was close nut it caught the line.
I'm gonna take my time now, the rain is coming, too much pressure.
Wide wide Ema
a little bit wide
