What this drill builds
Move to a wide ball with balance, send a safe reply, and return to a connected ready position.
Set up
B feeds A a ball wide. A starts in the middle, moves with side steps, sends a controlled crosscourt reply, then recovers to the middle.
Make the rep useful
Common miss: Watching your shot after contact instead of beginning recovery.
A good rep: You can handle five wide feeds without losing your balanced base.
The takeaway
Recovery keeps a stretched-out shot from becoming the end of the point, giving you a chance to regain balance for the next ball.
