Tennis: Forehand Volley From The Ground

Thanks for everything! Sportplan has helped me to improve my tennis...
Andrea, Tennis coach

DESCRIPTION

The player starts by sitting on the ground. They are fed the ball by the coach and must execute a forehand volley whilst only moving their upper body.

COACHING POINTS

In this drill, the player works on upper body control in the forehand volley. By not working the legs, players are required to have a bigger turn to develop the pace of the ball.

Being able to control the upper body and hit successful volleys is a necessity to deal with difficult volleys. Players have to learn how to use only their upper body to save difficult balls.
