My take on task simplification in tennis.

Michael Hurley on Twitter “My take on : Task simplification & manipulating constraints,in this case (equipment) in beginners tennis. Tennis has traditionally treated newcomers to the game as if they're incapable of PLAYING tennis until all the technical "fundamentals" are in place. I was guilty of this 🤦🏽♂.....
Wow what a get, but what stands out for you? Is it his speed to reach the ball? His touch & skill when he arrives to it ? All of the above are necessary to pull off the shot but without the situational awareness skills he never makes the ball !
What is situational awareness and how does it influence EVERYTHING top players do on court !! Tennis is a constant process of narrowing down what your opponents most likely response will be in any situation you maybe in over & over again!!
Notice how quickly Carlos turns after the return to chase down the short angled volley.
He is aware immediately after his return what the most likely place his opponent will volley to based on his own position on the court . Your skill on the ball is determined by your skills OFF the ball !!!!!
Trying to set an environment where learning to be aware of where your opponent is and take advantage of the opportunities this presents.
Finish in 10 seconds or less .... for older higher level players give them less time .Design GAMES not just drills.
Character built over a lifetime. 21🏆 and still humble. If your looking for a role model in sports look no further.
Most juniors/seniors like to stay on the baseline and smack the ball, get them out of their comfort zone and find what they don't like. Scoring system to encourage the skill,player gets a point if the force the opponent to volley & a bonus if they win the point.
Skillz on the stretch are out of this 🌍
Exploring different situations on the backhand.
The single best reaction from any box I've ever seen from Leylah Fernandez sister . This was during the break for the skinned knee .
Defending your 2nd serve is a 🗝 battle ground you MUST practice it.
Back at it today .
How to turn the point around when facing a big 1st serve . I just got schooled 🤦🏽♂️

Have you ever wondered if the MOVEMENT(S) you are doing in training LOOK, ACT ,FEEL or BEHAVE like those of the SPORT you compete in ?
LADDERS, CONES , AGILITY DRILLS are just some of the activities that we see EVERYONE else REPLICATING. What’s wrong with that you may ask. From my twenty plus years in DEVELOPING players very few can inform you of the WHY.
These are ISOLATED activities that HAVE very little relevance to MOVEMENTS that are seen in COMPETITION.
Most PLAYERS can run through a ladder at speed but is it not better for the PLAYER to pick up INFORMATION in their PRACTICE design so they CAN decide when they will require SPEED.
WE owe it to our PLAYERS to DEVELOP them in RELATION to SLICES of the GAME they play. This essentially means we MUST give our PLAYERS CONTEXT - THE WHY.
MOVEMENTS in CONTEXT are EVERYTHING !!!
At COACHING MOVEMENT, we provide programs for developing BETTER MOVERS in the CONTEXT of the SPORT they live and BREATHE.
Starting the point from different situations & observing the player's response to each situation.
The Circle of DOOM game.
Return of 2nd serve practice .
Quickly recognising your shot quality( good & bad ) can be the difference between winning and losing a point .

Why Led Zeppelin's John Bonham Didn't Worry About Drumming Technique John Bonham ranks among rock's greatest drummers, but Led Zeppelin's powerhouse never put a high value on technique.
