Backhand Volley Drill - Make Contact In the Air

An Open Racquet Face Makes This Volleyed Ball Go Up

Steve Hufford
Do not let the ball hit the floor. Hit the ball in the air, making contact somewhere between shoulder height and waist height. Hold the racquet so that the face of the racquet is at an angle pointing upwards. You want to hit the ball up, above the red line on the front wall, so the racquet face must be 'open' at contact, not perpendicular to the floor.
