In principle, the first part of the training is concentrated to the work on the basic strokes. It is important to practice the exercises with the similar situations which are happening during the matches. This kind of training is called "situation training". After the player fulfills most of the part of such training, it is expected that he will react instinctively during the game for each point. The next phase is directed towards the perfection of the serve, while the last part of the training consists of the game on challenged sets with the partners.
However, each training starts with the warming-up training. The coach must not allow that the training be not successful. It may happen sometimes that one part of the training is less successful but in principle the training as a whole must in any case be successful. It is not permissive that one player does not follow the whole training with full force and concentration, it cannot be tolerated any kind of non-engagement of laziness.
The coach must impose to each player the feeling that everything he does during the training is spontaneous and not under anybody's pressure. It happens sometimes that a player comes to the training and says: "I do not feel like I should have training today". How do you react in such a situation as a coach? You can ask the player for the reason of such behaviour; did he sleep bad, etc. The coach must persuade the player that he should be concentrated on the present situation, exactly on the moment of the training. The player has to think only on the ball which is going towards him. The player has to be led to the intensive concentration on the ball. Another way for a training to be successful is to have "effective training sessions". In order to have "effective training sessions", it is necessary to have players of different styles in your club. So, you have different playing styles (attack, defence), different way of holding the racket (left-handers, right-handers, penholders). Of course this is difficult to achived but you have to bring players from other clubs or do some matches with such players.
