Alternating Forehand & Backhand Groundstrokes

Rally against the wall alternating continuously between a forehand drive and a backhand drive with lateral footwork.

Key points

  • Change grips immediately as the ball rebounds off the wall
  • Move feet across to get set behind the bounce on both sides

Common mistakes

Delaying the grip change until after the ball bounces, causing late contact.
