Tennis: Serve and Volley

Sportplan has been very helpful in guiding me through my first year...
Bill, Newly qualified coach

DESCRIPTION

Player 1 serves a 1st Serve and follows it in to hit a volley. If returner is finding it hard then serve a 2nd serve. Serve volley behind the returner i.e. to the same direction that the ball came from to wrong foot the opponent.

COACHING POINTS

  • Server should place the ball toss in front to transfer body weight forward to make it easier to follow the ball into the net.
  • When possible players should hit the ball back to the same direction as it came from, change of direction is much harder and riskier.
