- Learn the special moves last. The fundamentals — passing, positioning, basic shots — win far more games than trick shots.
- Defend first when you are ahead, attack first when you are behind. It sounds obvious, and yet.
- Use the whole field, court or track. Players who hug one side become predictable.
- Play a full season or tournament rather than single matches; the progression makes each match matter more.
