How To Predict The Future
Two quick tips for predicting the future:
– Watch the angle of the hips and shoulders. Your opponent will play to the most comfortable angle they are in. Depending on the direction their body is facing you should be able to tell if they will hit down the line or cross court.
– Notice if they are on offense or defense. If they are defensively positioned you should move in towards the net and get ready to attack.
