Stage 1: The player should watch videos online of a perfect model to see their footwork for certain shots and analyze their own footwork. Stage 2: A partner or trainer will lob the ball to the players right or left side (depending on whether the player needs to improve backhand or forehand foot placement), the player will then take small steps to make sure that the ball is within arms reach. Stage 3: This should be repeated until the player can consistently analyze the footing he needs for certain shots. This practice is designed to improve the shot selection and power of the shot. Stage 1: Observe the correct motions that should be made for certain shots as well as analyzing the proper performance of this. Stage 2: The player should again get a partner to lob the ball towards him (repeatedly), the player should realize through what he learnt in stage 1 not to push the racket but swipe upwards, allowing for more spin and less chance of the ball being overshot. Stage 3: Repeat once again with forehand and backhand until the player is able to return the ball without it landing outside of the court.
