Consistency – group coaching day

Consistency is king! If you are more consistent than your opponent – play longer rallies and make fewer unforced errors – it gives you a big advantage. In this group coaching day I will show you how to use spin oriented strokes to achieve a much higher level of consistency. I will also show you the best exercises to do in your training sessions to keep developing your consistency skills over the longer term.
