Hi,

I'm not too keen on playing doubles, I don't really enjoy it much except playing for fun with friends when it can be a really good laugh. But I would play it more often if I thought some aspect of it would help my singles performance. So my question is - Does playing doubles help you play singles?

Many Thanks

Hi Roger,

I don't think there is a lot of benefit in doubles for your singles game.  You are better off practicing more singles if you have to make a decision between the two.

The Crossover Point

Listen to Alois talk about his training focusing on the crossover point and the excellent results he achieved. As a student of the game it is important that you think about the crossover point and spend some time practicing hitting the ball there.
