Internationally known for his success in teaching tennis,
Bill Mountford has created an exciting instructional video
specifically for high school coaching! With a combination
of lecture-style teaching and on-court demonstration, Mountford
reveals his secrets for becoming a successful coach. He begins
by stating six simple guidelines for coaching: keep it simple,
compliment profusely, avoid over-coaching, keep instruction
concise, become a resource for tennis in the community, and
promote the game. Mountford also gives his advice on topics
such as ranking systems for players, conditioning, and building
team unity. He uses on-court demonstration to illustrate four
different innovative practice drills. Each drill is uniquely
designed to emulate game situations as well as continually
condition players. He discusses and demonstrates how to have
a successful practice with minimal court space using drills
such as "rotating approach" and "circle game".
With drills such as "half-court king/queen" and
"triples", Mountford demonstrates how to utilize
a large number of courts with minimal players. Mountford shows
how to design each practice to help you easily evaluate each
player's true ability. He also provides tactics and strategy
advice for both singles and doubles players. This DVD will
benefit not only you, but also the students you instruct!
