Offense V Defense

Are you actually playing offense… or just running around reacting and hoping for the best? 😅

From knowing when to come to net to recognizing when you need to defend, reset, or pressure your opponents, this episode is packed with practical strategy for league players who want to play smarter doubles. Kim and Jane also dig into the power of partner communication, court coverage, and proactive decision-making so you’re not just in the point… you’re actually controlling it.
