Improve partnership communication and positioning for overheads.
🏆
Your #1 Takeaway
How should partners communicate and position for overhead lobs?
Partners must communicate who is taking the overhead (especially lobs towards the forehand player's left shoulder) and the non-hitting partner must move out of the way, typically towards the side fence.
What Your Guru Thinks
This is quite useful if you play with a regular partner and want to improve how you work together at the net. The coach highlights a common situation where communication and movement prevent mistakes and confusion. Understanding whose responsibility certain overhead lobs are, especially for forehand players, is crucial. It shows how simple calls and movements can make your partnership much more effective.
Watch this if you are a forehand player! Or make your partner watch it! It saves you from fighting!
