IPTPA 4.0 Practice Drill Session
On Wednesday, February 24th
Sharon Kolarik (USAPA 5.0👏)
offered a 4.0 IPTPA training class
that would allow the participants to
perform the skills necessary to take the 4.0 IPTPA test.
We had twenty-four QCPC members participated, and just like the actual test, the participants had to achieve a score of 68 points out of 90 to pass.
In this group there was one participant who was able to achieve the qualification for a 4.0 rating, with the average score for all participants at 56.4.
This training class had participants doing transition zone backhands/forehands/cross-
as well as overheads, punch volleys, baseline drop shots
and the famed "windshield wiper" drill.
The drills with the highest scores by all of the participants were the windshield wiper drill and the overheads.
The class provided excellent insight
as to what the members needed
to practice to achieve that next skill level.
If you are interested in the IPTPA testing,
check out the right side of our webpage under "Rating Information".
The IPTPA testing is available for 2.5 through 4.5 skill levels,
and since its inception at QCPC
a total of 111 members have taken and passed the test.
