Focus Flexibility
The split second that it takes you to change focus from an object far away to
one near you may delay your reaction time and cause you to frequently drop a
pass or mis-hit an easy volley.
To improve focus flexibility, post a newspaper page
on a wall at eye level about 15 feet away from you and hold a similar one in
your hand about 15 inches from your face, at the same height but slightly to one
side, so you can see both pages. Focus on a headline on the page on the wall and
then try to quickly change to focus on the page near your face. Keep changing
focus back and forth and you will improve your ability to change focus quickly.
If you find it getting easier, move the paper in your hand closer to your face.
