2 points for net winner2

Instruction :
Play a set or tie breaker awarding 2 points to any player who can successfully approach the net and hit a winner volley or overhead.
Look to work:
· Tactical use of the approach shot – coming in behind the right shot
· Effective volleying including closing in for a put away

Scoring and Details :
Play this variation to encourage players who camp out at the baseline to move forwards. Although all out attack on the net has disappeared from the game, being able to follow a good approach shot into the net is still a key weapon.
