The home team fought hard in the first half and held the visitors. Neither side had scored up to the interval.

In some grades there are those who add ball-control of a high ortler. They can play the ball low over the net against the vollayer, straight down the line against a weak forehand drive or across the court to exploit E poor back- hand.
They may even have fine control of length and be able to place ball after ball within a foot or two of the baseline.
