Coaching Schedule

Hi Alois and Jeff,

I have three intermediate players. Usually, the schedule is (after warm-ups) Basics-Pushes, Counters, then, Footwork drills, Topspins off Counters and Topspins off Backspins(Third Ball Attacks). Is it important to practice all these strokes everyday, or should I pick a stroke or a strategy each day? Now, they are at the stage where, they need 'extra' focus. They need service and service return practice. They need game practice and games. But, I can't manage to do all these everyday in 90 minutes. Please suggest me the schedule. Thank You!

Hi Jaydev,

If you are running out of time, select the things you want to train particularly.  THen rotate them through each day so that you can fit in some matches.

Take a look at our Training Plan template that will give you a good outline.  You can modify the times to suit a 90 minute session.  Perhaps cut the Training Drills and Match Drills down to 40 minutes and the Service practice to 5 minutes.
