figure 8 (taken from USPTA.com)

Mechanics:
Place a cone on each side of the court in line with the alley and near the baseline. One is in the
forehand corner and the other in the backhand corner. Player A, who will recover to center of court, feeds
ball down the line (see 1 in image) to player B, who hits a backhand crosscourt and then recovers to center
of court (see 2 in image). Player A then hits a backhand down the line (see 3 in image), moves around the
cone and goes to the back of the line. Player B then hits a forehand crosscourt, moves around the cone
and goes to the back of the line. Players C and D rotate in and repeat the steps. Switch so other side is
hitting crosscourt.
Variation: Have players rotate from only one side while leaving the player on the other side by
himself or herself.
