Fantastic footwork is king

To get the best out of your game - good footwork is key. You don’t need to be quick to have good footwork. Speed can help, but effective footwork will allow you to cover a lot of the court without being extremely fast. Correct footwork can help you to cover more court, recover quicker after shots and help you prepare for the next shot.
