It’s early October, which means ballplayers on all levels are gearing up for the season. In this space we will be bringing you basketball training videos from our friends at Point 3 Basketball on a regular basis. Each installment of the series will introduce a new traning technique produced by their endorsed Alpha Trainers, designed to help you prepare for and excel during the season.
We’ve hit you with a dynamic warm-up drill and a great footwork/coordination/ballhandling drill. Today’s drill is designed to work on your ball handling, footwork and passing.

Here are some basic tennis ball drills that are performed on a daily basis by some elite players during training sessions.
