UpLVL Assessment
3 new notes, 2 earlier notes, and 7 skills interpreted for Reese's development
UpLVL
Reese is performing within the Ascending Stage, with Tactics & Point Construction and Net Game established as the most reliable parts of the profile. Across this report window, Groundstrokes made the clearest movement while Tactics & Point Construction continued to set the standard. In recent live point construction, Reese showed more control as the pace increased, stayed connected through tighter decisions, and carried the strongest habits into demanding moments. This shows an already strong profile becoming more complete, with the work now centered on refinement rather than fundamentals. The primary priority is Groundstrokes. Reese now needs to make advanced technique just as reliable under fatigue and immediate pressure. In the Down-the-Line Transition Pattern, Reese should develop the ability to redirect a crosscourt ball down the line with proper footwork and swing adjustment, with one standard throughout: open your hips to aim down the line. Successful transfer will look like Reese using groundstrokes at full pace without losing control, timing, or awareness of the next option.

Reese looked more composed between shots. Tactics & Point Construction and Net Game were the clearest separators in this session and created more control in the game. The next push is Groundstrokes and Serve so that level holds when the pace lifts, the decisions get tighter, and the game becomes less forgiving.
Coach JordanMar 2
Groundstrokes and Serve are the clearest next step. The goal is to keep the same quality when space closes quickly.

How It Works

Develop the ability to redirect a crosscourt ball down the line with proper footwork and swing adjustment.

What You Need
tennis rackettennis ballscourtball hopper
Mindset Rep
Lock-In Rep

Pick one detail to watch before the rep starts. Run the rep without adding a second focus.

Your Focus

Changing direction from crosscourt to down-the-line is one of the most tactically important skills in rallying, requiring both footwork and racket-face adjustment.

1
Set Up

Coach feeds a deep crosscourt ball to your forehand.

2
Run The Rep
A.
Take the ball early (inside the baseline if possible) and redirects it down the line to the opposite corner.
B.
After the down-the-line shot, player recovers to center and prepares for the next feed.
3
Check It

Open your hips to aim down the line

Goal

Success is landing 3 down-the-line balls in a row after feeding from crosscourt, your feet and swing adjust before the ball gets there.

Helpful Cues
Open your hips to aim down the lineContact the ball slightly in front for inside-out directionWatch the ball, then decide to redirect
UPLVL IT

Partner knows you will go down the line and defends it; player must add pace or angle to win the point.
