Dear Alois and Jeff,

I love the videos you've made, however I can't seem to find any videos that provide guidance for doubles play. I understand you may not be as proficient in doubles as you are in singles, but do you have any tactical tips and general strategies that I can apply during a doubles match?

Best Regards,

Stefan Arak

Hi Stefan,

We haven't made any doubles videos as yet.  It is an idea for us for the future.

We do have a few previous Ask the Coach questions on the topic.  Just type in 'Doubles Tactics' into the search box at the top of the Ask the Coach page to see them.
