The programme follows the principles of: Beat the bounce: Encouraging players to work hard to get behind the ball and be ready to receive the incoming ball. This ties in with athletic movements and the perception of the incoming ball. Consistent contact points: Players to be able to consistently contact the ball between waist and shoulder, and have repeatable swings. All-court player: To learn the skills to become a complete tennis player. 360-degree athlete: Players should look to become rounded athletes and develop athletic skills above and beyond tennis.
