What sort of training drills can I use to improve fluidity and timing on intermediate players?

Hi Fabian,

I think the main thing is to get them to put attention on the tension in different parts of their body initially.

Then do a lot of drills where they start with something simple like hitting from one position.  As they start to feel smooth with that, then increase the difficulty by increasing speed or placement options.  They will get more tense again so let them work through that till they stat to feel smooth again.

The most important thing is getting their attention there.

#46 - Tournament Preparation 2

In the first week of your preparation we focused on the consistency of your third ball attack. This week, since the third ball is so important, we are going to continue working on this. However this week we are going to focus on placement. It is really important tactically to think about where you are going to play the ball. We build upon the drills from last week so you can improve the effectiveness of your third ball through placement.
