Develop efficient movement from baseline to net position, converting defensive shots into aggressive positioning. Baseline-to-net transitions are fundamental for point construction and control.
Execute an offensive baseline shot (drive, approach, or transition shot) that allows forward movement.
Use small, quick steps to move from baseline toward net immediately after striking the shot.
Advance through the court in small movements, reaching mid-court by the time the opponent strikes.
Complete the transition by establishing aggressive net position (12-18 inches from net tape).
Arrive at net with knees bent, weight balanced, and racket up for immediate volley reaction.
Position yourself to finish the point with aggressive volleys on the opponent's response.
Coach tip
Efficient transitions close out points; move forward decisively once you hit an offensive shot.
