It?s really important to work on volleys from different areas of the court. Too many times players practice these shots from the same spot so they get comfortable with the feeling but they are not able to execute volleys during match situations.
What?s in the Session?
Players should be versatile at the net and be able to hit volleys from differing angles and positions. That is why learning how to hit different volleys, both from the service line and close to the net, will develop specific technical and tactical skills that will guarantee an expected level of effectiveness under pressure.
One of the most effective skills that can be used at the net is a stop volley. Players who feel comfortable hitting this kind of shot are significantly more dangerous than competitors who are limited in this area.
Indoor courts give players less time and less room. Help them sharpen their split step, shorten their swing and stay calm, and winter becomes a season of real progress.
A tiebreak is a short sprint where every point is worth the same as a break of serve. The players who win them are rarely the ones who hit hardest. Here is how to coach the patterns, habits and scoreboard thinking that win the big points.
Most club players practise the serve on its own and then have no idea what to do with the ball that comes back. Serve plus one is the pattern that turns a good serve into a won point.
