Presentation Strategy

A good strategy for giving presentations is to

follow this rule: tell them what you’re going to

tell them, tell them, and then tell them what you

told them. Giving people a roadmap, following

the roadmap, and then reminding them about

where they went will help make the points in

your presentation stick in their minds more

effectively.

Racquetball Fundamentals

2, 3, or 4 players.

1 player serves, other “returns.”

Only serving player can score.

Served ball must land past serving line and

cannot hit back wall.

Ball can only bounce once before striking

front wall…but ball does not have to bounce.
