Objective:
Modified scoring scenario’s are a very effective way of manipulating your students game style. Award them double points for a forehand winner and they will attack with that shot, penalise double points for a net error and they will hit with greater clearance – combine different variations to get your players playing the type of game you want them to.
Instruction :
Award two points for aces, forehand winners, volley winners or drop shots.
Penalise two points for double faults or errors into the net.
Consider your own combinations which will suit your player’s specific needs. If they have the right competitive attitude they will adjust their play to maximise the modified scoring scenario, and then hopefully adopt in during open match play.
Scoring and Details :
Matches can be tie breakers, sets or modified scoring (each game starts at 30-30) depending on time available.
