Core Doubles Patterns, by Groundstrokes!

Come & train with us. This session will be supervised by Groundstrokes Tennis Team!

Effective doubles play in tennis relies on coordinated movement patterns, high-percentage crosscourt shots, and aggressive net control.

Core Doubles Patterns:

1. Serve Plus One: The server hits an effective serve and immediately moves forward toward the net to cut off the next reply with a first volley.

2. Return Plus One: The returner hits a low, controlled crosscourt return and moves up from the baseline to join their partner in the net zone.

3. The Crosscourt Safe Zone: Keep most neutral rallies moving crosscourt. Crosscourt shots pass over the lowest part of the net and give your team more reaction time.

4. The Poach: The net player on the serving or returning team darts across the center line to intercept and volley an opponent's weak or predictable crosscourt ball.

5. Move as a Unit: Shift together. If your partner moves wide to chase a ball, slide toward the middle of the court to cover open gaps.
