Welcome to the latest episode of the Prodigy Maker Show! In this episode, Chris delves into the importance of footwork and positioning in tennis, specifically the Spanish way of teaching it.
Chris explains why orange ball tennis can inhibit the development of the world-class movement in young players, and why it’s important to start with the basics of footwork and positioning at a young age.
He also discusses the X drill and why it is so important in developing proper footwork and positioning, not only physically but also philosophically.
Additionally, Chris shares his insights on the on-the-rise movement and why it’s important for advanced players, but not necessarily the best way to start juniors in their developmental journey.
Overall, this episode is a must-watch for coaches and players alike who want to improve their footwork and positioning on the court and take their game to the next level.
