PUSH UP.
I HAVE TALKED ABOUT THIS BEFORE, BUT THERE IS NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN PUSHING UP THE COURT, TAKING THAT BALL EARLY AND PUTTING YOUR OPPONENT UNDER PRESSURE. WARM UP ON OR AROUND THE HALF COURT LINE, LOOK TO VOLLEY EVERYTHING, GET YOUR RACKET BACK EARLY, AND WORK ON A COMPACT SWING. JUNIORS ARE GREAT AT STANDING MILES TOO DEEP, HAVING A HUGE SWING AT THE BALL, AND PLAYING IN THE BACK OF THE COURT. WRONG. THAT EXTRA STEP OR TWO UP MAKES IT A DIFFERENT GAME, AND CUTS YOUR RUNNING DOWN BIG TIME. SO GET UP THERE, AND WIN MORE OFTEN!
