Hi, this is Ben Hesley from Bull Shark Sports.
Speaker:
00:00:20
Today's tip is centered around doubles.
Speaker:
00:00:22
Hopefully this will help you have a successful out of season.
Speaker:
00:00:27
When you're a server or a returner, let your
Speaker:
00:00:29
partner work for you.
Speaker:
00:00:31
Sometimes I watch doubles matches and it looks like they're playing singles with four people
Speaker:
00:00:36
on the court.
Speaker:
00:00:37
Some of the best matches I ever played is when I served and my partner was in a position
Speaker:
00:00:42
to put the ball away.
Speaker:
00:00:44
So when you're out there, think about how your net partner, whether you're the server
Speaker:
00:00:48
or the returner, can help you win points.
Speaker:
00:00:51
Your job as a server returner is the number one, keep your net partner safe, and then
Speaker:
00:00:56
number two, set them up.
Speaker:
00:00:58
So when returning and serving, think about how you can set up your partner and I guarantee
Speaker:
00:01:02
you'll win more doubles points and more matches.
Speaker:
00:01:05
Good luck this season.
Speaker:
00:01:09
