Speaker:Hey, hey, this is Shaun with the Atlanta Tennis Podcast,
Speaker:powered by GoTennis.
Speaker:Today's tennis tip comes from Coach Ben Hesley
Speaker:of Bull Shark Sports.
Speaker:Have a listen and let us know what you think.
Speaker:(upbeat music)
Speaker:Hi, this is Ben Hesley from Bull Shark Sports.
Speaker:Today's tip, we're gonna be focused on holding return.
Speaker:Holding return means winning our return games.
Speaker:Very similar to how you hear holding surf,
Speaker:we're focused on winning the games
Speaker:in which someone is serving to us.
Speaker:In B and C, out to levels and low levels
Speaker:of junior competition, this is often the case
Speaker:because the surf is developmentally weaker
Speaker:than other parts of players' games.
Speaker:So it presents an opportunity to take advantage
Speaker:of our opponent's surf and then break their surf
Speaker:or what we like to call holding return.
Speaker:So when you're out there playing,
Speaker:think about how you can take advantage
Speaker:of that weaker surf, attack that,
Speaker:and then hold your return.
Speaker:Holding return is a concept maybe something I've not heard,
Speaker:but holding return is really, really viable
Speaker:in order to win matches at those B and C,
Speaker:out to levels and those lower levels
Speaker:of junior competition.
Speaker:I hope this helps.
Speaker:I hope that you learn to attack people's surf,
Speaker:be aggressive and hold return.
