Players avoid pairing up with me in training because im a leftie
I have gone to this clinic 4 times now and by this time most people know im the only leftie in the 10 people group.
During rally I really tried to hit to their forehand but at 3.0 3.5 levels i cant be consistent. Cross court rally usually breakdown earlier because my partner's or my backhands are weak.
In match play drills I noticed few players avoided pairing up with me, one straight up told the coach they had never met a leftie in tournaments so no point practicing with me.
Most of the time I felt like being leftie is weapon especially my slice serve on ad side, but in training most people just want to get in the most comfortable setup and I felt like im a third wheel.
Other lefties whats your experience like? Would love to hear your thought.
