Setup
Feeder at the kitchen line, hitter at the baseline.
Reps
20 patterns per side
How to run it
- 1Feeder sends a deep ball. Hitter drives it low at the feeder's paddle-side hip.
- 2Feeder blocks the drive back into mid-court.
- 3Hitter, now in the transition zone, drops the fifth shot into the kitchen and moves to the line.
- 4Play the point out from there.
Watch for
- Driving balls that are below net height
- Driving so hard the block comes back as a winner
- Forgetting to move forward behind the drop
Make it harder
Feeder chooses randomly between a block and a counter; hitter must read and respond.
