Lob, Recover, Take the Net
The most reliable way to win a point from the baseline is to lob deep, force a defensive return, and rotate up to the net as a team.
🎯 Key points
- ✓Lob cross-court for max distance.
- ✓Both players move forward together after the lob.
- ✓If opponents hit a quality bandeja, retreat together — don't get stuck in no-man's land.
- ✓Call 'go' or 'back' loudly between the team.
🏃 Practice drill
Team A starts at baseline. Team B at net. Team A's only goal: lob, rotate, and end the point at net. Play 10 points, switch sides.
