How to play the triangle

Summary

Jack Munro shows that you don’t always need to hit harder to create an opening.

Instead, use the angles. Move your opponents and make them cover more court by playing the triangle, and let the space open up for you.

Key takeaways

  • Angles open the court more than pace
  • Move opponents to make them cover more ground
  • Play the triangle and wait for the space

Action items

  • In dink rallies, alternate angled and straight balls to stretch your opponents
  • Look for the gap that opens after two angled shots
  • Play a game where you can’t speed up until you’ve moved them twice
