Exercise 1 - Use the lines on the ground of the gym as playing field. The players can only
8 min. move with sidesteps on the lines. 2 or 3 players are chosen to be the hunter.
They have to place a Speeder® on their rackets and try to touch another
player (not the other hunters) with the racket. If the hunter catches a player
then they become hunter immediately (the racket and Speeder® are handed
over). After the change the hunter always has to go back to a designated
area and start the “hunt” from there.

and moving scissor jump:
to front court
Methodical sequence for learning the scissor jump
15 min.
1. Every player finds a line with some place around the gym. Standing on
the line the players should try to make a 180° turn in the air. They
should land on both feet at the same time and on the same spot they
were standing on before.
2. The same as no 1 and the players should make 2 or 3 sidestep on the
line before jumping (make sure they turn in the right direction!).
3. Now they players try to jump from standing on one foot (right handed:
starting on the right foot) to standing onto the other foot (left) – landing
only on this foot this time.
4. The same as no 3 and the players should make 2 or 3 sidestep on the
line before jumping (the jump needs to go up and in a backward
direction)
5. Now let the players try the whole scissor jump. First, focus only on the
legs, then add the hitting movement
6. The whole movement with sidesteps beforehand while throwing the
Speeder®. Then the player moves forward to the partner to high five
(after the throw move towards the partner who has caught the
Speeder®. Take the Speeder® back and repeat)
7. Introduce the footwork technique to right and left front corner
8. Exercise: the coach throws 10 Speeders® in the corner where the
footwork technique should be practiced. The player has to use the
correct hitting and footwork techniques and resume to the central
position after each shot
9. Playing exercise: Player 1 serves (first high, then low), player 2 returns
the Speeder® using the correct footwork techniques
