Master every situation on the court
13 tactics in Lob Defense
You are lobbed while at the net. The lob is medium depth, not short enough to attack, not deep enough to let bounce.
The opponent lobs short, the ball is above shoulder height and well inside the service line.
You are choosing where to direct your lobs from the back of the court.
Your opponent lobs perfectly deep and the ball is heading into the back corner.
You are pinned at the back and opponents control the net.
You are playing overheads and opponents have found a rhythm reading your bandeja and vibora.
A lob goes over both players and there is hesitation about who should take it.
Opponents lob you and you keep trying to smash the bandeja for a winner, often missing or getting it returned.
A lob falls short, around the service line, and you want to attack it without overhitting into the back glass.
A lob pushes you back toward the side wall and a flat smash would only feed the back glass.
You are stretched and out of position at the back and need to stay in the point without feeding a sitter.
Opponents feed you tempting deep lobs and you smash them, into the back glass and back to them, or into the net.
After you play a bandeja or smash you stand and admire it, then get caught out of position by the reply.
