Rising Star requires players who can control and direct the ball, so look for advanced beginners and up to play this game. Two players minimum; or, for a good private lesson activity, have the coach feeding all balls as Player A.
Player A stands at the baseline near the sideline. Player B is at the opposite baseline in the center of the court. Player A alternates feeding ball cross court and down the line to Player B. Player B must return all balls to Player A.
As you can see, this game also requires a certain level of fitness, so limit playing time accordingly.
I found this activity in The Tennis Drill Book by Tina Hoskins. I have a link to it on my Amazon store page here.
