Tip:

The one-handed backhand volley is a challenging shot for some players. For this week’s tip we have USPTA Professional Mark Bey talking about the backhand volley technique. He explains that the early contact point should be aligned with the hitting shoulder, and the knuckles of the hitting hand should move toward the target. He also discusses the nondominant hand and how it should push backward as if the player is holding a cup of water in his hand.
