As they develop, students will need to learn to adapt to ball bounce variations. Different court surfaces will cause the balls to bounce somewhat differently -- in the terms of how high balls will bounce as well as how the bounce (angle) on particular surface is affected by spin.
Variations will also be seen from one brand of ball to the next and from one ball model to the next. Some will be harder or softer than others, even when brand new. Some will be livelier than others. Standard duty balls will experience less air drag than XD balls and, as a result, fly somewhat faster (or not lose speed quite as readily). Ball variations (stiffness, internal pressure, amt of felt, etc) will also have some bearing on how the ball will interact with the strings of the racket.
Even more important than these factors is how weather will affect the flight and bounce of a tennis ball. Balls will bounce considerably lower in cold temps than in warm or hot temps. The range here can be very significant.
Balls will also fly (& bounce) differently at sea level than at higher elevations, Balls will act somewhat differently with changes in barometric pressure and with changes in humidity levels.
And, of course, players will have to adapt to widely different playing styles. Various styles may significantly affect how the ball travels thru the air and how it bounces. Some players will hit a lot of low skidding balls while others might hit with massive TS so that balls are bouncing quite high, on average. Many good, versatile adversaries will vary ball speed, spin type, rotational speed, and ball trajectory (including height over the neck and depth).
With all these factors, players will encounter a wide variation wrt bounces and ball flight. They learned to deal with moderate speeds and bounces first and then livelier balls later. With a high intermediate student, it might be perfectly fine to start off a session with balls that are bit less lively. And then, later in the session, switch off to more aggressive feeds or use fresh / new, livelier balls.
