Am gasit testul pe forumul TW.
This is a great test for high school coaches looking to improve their players. This can also be done individually.
This contest records the amount of TOTAL time it takes to hit the ball 200 times against the wall. Record the time taken to complete each test. Players are able to compare their "total time" against others who have also been tested.
Ability Ranking Categories:
Professional: under 3 minutes and 30 seconds or 3:30
Champion: 3:30 to 3:44
Tournament Player: 3:45 - 4:14
Advanced Player: 4:15 - 4:59
Average Player: 5:00 - 5:59
Beginner: 6:00 or longer
Rules:
1. To measure these tests accurately, the wall will have a net line painted on it, a groundstroke line needs to measure 21 feet from the wall and a volley line should measure 6 feet from the wall.
2. To score a correct hit, the ball must land on or above the net line. In three groundstroke (forehand and backhand) tests, the player must contact the ball when he is standing behind the 21 foot line (volleys are hit standing behind the 6-footline).
3. Tested players should be rotated so that one player does not complete all four tests in a row. Players also should begin each test with a second ball in their pockets. If the ball goes astray, the second ball can be used.
Tests:
1. How much time it takes to hit 50 forehands against the wall.
2. How much time it takes to hit 50 backhands against the wall.
3. How much time it takes to hit 50 alternating forehands and backhands against the wall.
4. How much time it takes to hit 50 alternating forehand and backhand volleys against the wall.
You will add up the times and compare it to the above legend.
If a player starts to try and hit faster and faster to get more shots in, he/she will make errors and their time will increase. The drill is about ball control. Letting the ball hit the wall and bounce back so you can hit it again. If you try to hit harder to increase the speed - soon a player will miss.
