Hey everybody, I have a question on how to structure the training sessions for my 10-year old son. He currently takes one private two hour lesson with a pro and pracitces with me five days per week (he has one day per week off from tennis). When with his coach they go over everything in the lesson. When I go to practice with him, I am not sure what the right approach should be. There is so much you can do when you have only two hours per day on the court. Do you work on groundstrokes, slices, drop shots, volleys, over heads, serves and then find the time to play a set to have some fun as having fun is also important at this age to keep the kid motivated. I feel as his skills have progressed we are trying to fit too much in every session. It was definitely easier when all we did was ground strokes and maybe a game here and there. For those of you with experience with kids - do you try to do a little bit of everything every day or do you concentrative on a few things and then rotate what you are working on?
Thanks!
Thanks!
