Practice and repetition are the best ways to become a better player. Repetition develops muscle memory so that during play hitting the best shot becomes automatic. Skills & Drills utilizes a ball machine to focus on specific skills: forehands, backhands, cross-court, down the line, dinks, lobs, volleys, the serve etc. The consistent ball machine feed allows you to correct existing bad habits which translates into better shots. Minimum 4 people.
