#1 Awesome Approaches

 

“The success of your volley depends on the quality of your approach!” is a quote you should keep in mind when you love to play an aggressive net game. Just rushing to the net, and not executing your approach shot (or return of service) with 100% conviction, will get you in trouble at the net. You end up missing volleys, not because your volley was all that bad, but as a result of a shallow, or poorly executed, approach shot. Move in to that short ball, slow down (don’t stop!) take the shot in transition and place it deep, preferably down the line to take away angles and to get to your net position quicker. Now put it away. Game, set and match!
