Keys to Reducing Unforced Errors:
1. Every shot has to clear the net. Aim your shots 3-5 feet over the net to eliminate errors into the net and insure good depth.
2. Aim your ball well inside the lines to give yourself some margin for error.
3. When you're in trouble aim your shot high, deep, and crosscourt so that you can recover for the next shot.
4. Early in the point, hit your shots deep crosscourt or deep down the middle.
5. Movement and early preparation are keys to consistent groundstrokes. Hit every ball in your strike zone with good balance.
6. It's easier/safer to hit a ball back from the direction it came from rather than changing the angle. Only change direction of a ball that you can control and are in good position to attack.
