Overview

This is a compilation of the best tips possible on the volley.  By the end of the course you will have a very full understanding of how to hit your volleys, placement ideas, how to generate angles, and even how to affect the bounce of your shot to bother your opponent.  Pancho’s knowledge is the main driving force here, with notable contributions by Tilden and Lacoste.

Completing this course will help you:

Who is the course for?

Everyone.  Even a professional player might be familiar with the concept in video number 8, but they probably never knew how to put it in to words like Tilden did for us.  Remember, the biggest compliment you can give us is to refer us to others, so feel free to spread the word.  This is for everyone.

Learning Path

The volley is not about power, it’s about control, here’s how to perform it and open up the court more.

Video 1 Minute

Knowing the grip is great, but knowing why and how to do it is better.  Even if you’re quite advanced, this video and every video here should help you feel great on your volleys. 

Video 3 Minute

Make sure you know why you step across on your volleys.  You probably always knew to step with the opposite foot, but did you know why?  It gets your body weight into the shot more naturally, and makes it easier to turn to see the ball.  Now quit thinking and be natural.

Video 1 Minute

More info than the free video, this will make tricky volleys become almost automatic.

Video 1 Minute

Never fear playing at the net, embrace the small swing, and you’ll be great.

Video 1.5 Minute

The purpose of getting into the court and moving forward is to create better offense.  The closer you are in forward, the better the angles you can achieve on your shots.  So push in closer and know why you are there. 

Video 1.5 Minute

Breathe and stay calm, knowing that some of the best you will ever play is when you achieve strong legs and hard work.

Video 1.5 Minute

This is the crowning jewel of volley teaching.  Did you know all 3 spins?  If you have this level of knowledge, you can achieve all you want with practice and hard work.  This knowledge is worth its weight in gold.  More videos coming soon, with how to help you create these spins and more! 

Video 6.5 Minute

The videos are short and palatable, but please as always, don’t overthink.  If you want, watch one time through all of them, but when you go out on court, pick one thing to work on and don’t think.  Athletes just do, they don’t think.
