If you’re looking for a monster-sized hitting drill, look no further. Here is Cliff’s 1080 — a drill with 1080 variations that will challenge even the most seasoned pros.

Here’s how it works.

First, choose your spot on the court. You’ve got 9 options.

Next, choose how to shoot. 2 options here.

• Forehand
• Backhand

Third, choose which shot to drill. 5 options.

• Pinch
• Down the line
• Cross court
• Reverse pinch
• Wide angle

Then, choose an objective. 2 options.

• Second bounce close to the front wall
• Second bounce close to the back wall

And finally, choose how to start. 6 options here.

• Hit out of your hand and contact the ball high
• Hit out of your hand and contact the ball at medium height
• Hit out of your hand and contact the ball low
• Self-feed and cut the ball off
• Self-feed and hit the ball on a regular bounce
• Self-feed and short-hop the ball

So, there they are — 1080 variations: (9 spots) x (2 how to shoot) x (5 shots) x (2 objectives) x (6 start options) = 1080.

It’s right. I swear.

Now forget about the math. You’ve got some drilling to do!
