Up-and-Back Doubles: 1-up 1-back doubles

Ironically, the most basic tennis doubles formation is also the hardest to play. There is much more to playing 1-up/1-back than there is to playing both-up or both-back. By that I mean that you need to know more to play up-and-back.

This is because the weakness of the Up-and-Back Formation is an angular gap in it that makes it targetable only by an opponent in a certain position. It's also because two up-and-back teams can face each other in different ways.

This introductory lesson on doubles strategy will help familiarize you with the differences so that when they arise during play, you see the risks and opportunities in them.
