Serve and volley is a style of play that requires a player to have an efficient serve, a feel and touch for volleys, quickness, and the knowledge of where to position himself at the net. This style of play applies pressure on the opponent’s ability to hit passing shots. It eliminates the rally phase of the point, allowing the player to emphasize his strengths at the net.
