Can you please tell what and how should a defender practice?
Alois Rosario Answered 10 years ago
Hi Rutvik,
There are similar drills for defenders that you can do. If you look at the Training Drills download and then adapt that for defence. For example instead of doing the FH FH footwork with a counterhit you can do it with a chop.
We also have a lesson on Defensive Footwork which will help you.

We could have called this master class never give up. It's amazing when you are on the back foot in a rally how many times you can actually win the point just by making your opponent play one extra ball. Watch the video to find out how effective this is and how you can practice this skill.
