12 year old plays practice set with D1 nationally ranked player

12 year old Aqeela learning what she needs to do to get to the Next Level.

The biggest difference I see here is the national player is taking the ball on the rise allowing her to generate power/spin with very little effort and naturally be the aggressor throughout the match. Good game for both these players im sure.

Aqeela's really good!! Also, it's clear to see which one is the 12-year-old. She's tall but built like a 12-year-old girl! Also, why would the camera be closer to the person not being highlighted in the video?

Gal in pink is a brutal competitor. Tough putting the young one out against her, but she looks like she fought for it! Great lesson! 1:11

Um which one's the D1 and which ones the 12 year old? They both literally look like they're 20.

very good but could either prepare extremely early as she has a very big back swing or shorten the backswing a bit to give her time as she is hitting most of her forehands late which is obvs not ideal also not to sound like critique but ik I do but the footwork could be improved maybe on ladders or something just habits needing to get into but very good for 12

what the hell are they feeding these kids? she looks like 5 9 at 12

Teach your kid that she should never go down the line unless it's an aggressive, attacking shot. she opens up the court too much for her opponents.

The two videos posted only show two and three minutes of action. The players also didn't switch sides. That's the only way you can really get a good read on what's happening. Err.. it's impossible to really get better when someone is standing right there making noises and critiquing every single stroke. Back off Dad..🤷🏿‍♂️
