BREAKTHROUGH BOOT CAMP: CONTROL THE FIRST TWO
Monday: June 8TH (Rain Date: June 15th) 4:00 – 7:00 PM
This focused and fun Boot Camp zeroes in on the serve and return—the shots that quietly decide who plays offense and who plays defense. The session begins with an on-court assessment and video review to identify patterns and tendencies in your first two shots. You’ll then train intentional depth, placement, and pace to immediately pressure opponents and set up stronger third and fourth shots—these balls don’t end rallies, but they dictate them. The session finishes with a final assessment so you can see—and feel—the breakthrough.
