Presence?

[Hornets222003]

There's a lot of great advice here! I've found that relaxing a bit definitely helps with my court presence. When I find myself thinking about it all the time, then I tend to become more stiff. Also, the tape doesn't lie. Reviewing how you look during your games will help you to key in on areas that may be of concern. You may find that what you think you look like is very different from how you actually look when you're on the court.

I heard these same points just yesterday. You want to look athletic, but not stiff. Have good mechanics but not look mechanical. And watch as much video of yourself as possible.
