Players in this group need to have grasped the list of exit skills outlined in the orange ball class. In this group, we build on those fundamentals but also think about strengths, weaknesses, offense, and defense. Players at this stage will learn that the net is a place in which the point should conclude and look to attack when the opportunity presents itself. Entrants in this class are based on skill competency but the age range can vary from young ages through 14-years old. Exit skills which we are trying to achieve in this group are:

1. Creation of both topspin and underspin on both sides of the body

2. Full use of continental grip on serves, volleys, and slices.

3. Employing court width in order to open up space to win the point
