10 minutes · 2 players · Half court
What this drill builds
Work together to complete twenty neutral balls in a row with clearance, shape, and recovery.
Set up
Stand across from your partner on one half of the court. Start at the baseline or kitchen line, depending on the rally you need most.
Make the rep useful
Common miss: Turning a cooperative rally into a contest for pace.
A good rep: Twenty clean balls where both players stay balanced and can name the pattern.
The takeaway
Consistency is the foundation of every smarter shot: you cannot build a point if you cannot first keep the ball in play.
