Independence Pickleball (IPBC)

Have someone hit you balls from various spots across the net. Hitting to your forehand in the Even court side.

FROM: Deep corners, deep middle, front court Left, Middle, Right

Shots from the deliverer need to be at a consistant pace and hieght for proper training. 

If you are working on singles receive the forehand close to center and then again closer to the even court line in YOUR DEEP court.

If you are working on doubles play stand in the Even court and work your Foot work. 

Using your forehand stay low in ready position, Paddle face forward, crossover step to side line to take the shot. Front shoulder to the net, paddle moves behind you. Point to your target - the ball with left hand . transfer weight from back rt foot to front left foot as you rotate to through the stroke. Stay low on the shot. Don't come up on the shot otherwise the ball will rise with you. Stay low and return to ready position 

If you are top spinning?  Paddle is from low to high and finish your stroke

If you are using a cut shot?  Paddle is from high to low. To get the back spin in action.

Either way finish your stroke to your opponents odd court line.

Points to remember:

Stay low, bend your knees don't have your shoulder in front of your knees. Your weight is on balls of feet, Keep your motor running (bodies in motion are ready to move) your feet are ready to move, paddle in ready position with paddle face flat to net, chest high. Move to the ball in a balanced position. GLide...Rotate hips in a smooth motion. Stroke is smooth and finishing. If you stop the stoke the ball too will not finish. It will have a tendency to hang up. Your opponent will have time to get to the backhand, if right handed and then return your shot without much difficulty.
