Hi, coach!
What do you think about the following robot:

Will it help to improve technique of strokes? I remember that you said stationary ball doesn't help. Will training with such machine damage technique?

Hi ardak,
I think these are good to start with for a few minutes but the real skill is to hit a moving ball that is coming towards you and still get that contact.

The Controller
Most drills involve one person performing the exercise and the other placing the ball as required by the exercise. We call this person placing the ball the controller. When you are acting as the controller it is a great opportunity to practice your blocking and concentration. As blocking is an important part of the game you should be 100% focused at this time. You also owe it to your training partner to be blocking effectively so they get the most from their exercise.
