Run-around, sneak volley drill
Description: Check out this fun drill from USPTA Master Professional Rick Macci emphasizing inside out forehands and volleys.
Tip:
Putting the opponent on the defensive has always been an efficient tactic. However, too many times we see players struggle to identify when the opponent is in trouble. They hesitate to take charge or perhaps prefer to play safe and stay back. Being able to recognize the situations when your opponent is in trouble (meaning out of balance and reaching for the ball) is extremely important. That’s when you want to move inside the court and make things happen. And the only way to get better at it and gain confidence is to practice this pattern. So check out this week’s drill emphasizing offensive shots and taking charge at the net.
