Communication
(showing the tennis balls)
1
• Start in position.
2
• Place both hands out in front of you.
• Once the point finishes, you are ready
to communicate the balls.
• Both hands should be just below your
hip height.
• Hold the balls in front for five seconds
or until the net ballkid sees you
(whichever comes first).
• Nod your head when the net ballkid
acknowledges you.
3
• Return to start position.
• You must communicate the balls you
hold to the net ballkids after each and
every point so they can deliver balls to
you to service the player or move to
your side of the court so you can role
the balls to them.
• Even if you have no balls in hand you
must still communicate this.
