Training
A question from the Netherlands.
For starters i want to thank you for all the coaching en video instructions. We use them frequently.
I have the ambition to develop a diploma program, for basic starters, for players ready to start competition, for competition level players with few year experience, etc.
Aim: to have a clear trainingpath for player and trainer, and to motivate the player.
Question 1: Where can we draw the line for minimum skill level for a first level diploma for basic starters. Please define the skills you must have to qualify for the diploma?
Question 2: I want to incorporate some basic theoretical knowledge about rules and regulations. What are the facts rules and regulation one should minimal know to start his first competition?
Hi Hans,
I would follow the basic outline we have with our Tutorials of the Strokes and Techniques section. The Basic Strokes, the Intermediate Strokes and the Advanced Strokes as the 3 levels to start with.
We also have a Rules section that you can use as a stater for what they need to know.
Initially when you are learning a new serve you can just get a bucket of balls and serve over and over again. But at some stage you need to practice your serve exactly as you would play in a match. In this session we focus on this. It's important that you try to make this practice as close to a real match as you can so that when you are in the real thing, you feel comfortable.
