Baseline Marker Leg Drive & Forward Landing Drill

Place a marker line inside the baseline. First practice jumping up and forward over the marker without a ball and sticking the landing, then hit real serves with a forward toss to drive into the court.

Key points

  • Jump up and forward over the court marker and stick a balanced landing inside the baseline
  • Toss the ball out in front into the court to create runway for forward leg drive
  • Rely on lower body propulsion rather than overloading small arm joints

Common mistakes

Tossing the ball behind the head on first serves, forcing the body backwards and destroying forward drive.
