Cause and Effect: Positioning Theory

You don't have to touch the ball to influence the point. Where you stand matters. Where you move next matters even more. Positioning is about more than reaching the kitchen line or returning to your side of the court. Learn to recognize how the developing point influences your movement, your partner's coverage, and the spaces your opponents can exploit. Through strategic scenarios and coached gameplay, discover when to advance, retreat, shift, or hold your position—and how anticipating the next ball can change the outcome before you ever swing your paddle. WHO SHOULD ATTEND Designed for players comfortable with basic doubles positioning and gameplay who are ready to develop greater court awareness, anticipation, and coordinated movement with their partner.
