Forehand & Backhand Half-Volley Drill

Drive the ball into the wall with enough pace so it rebounds into the court right in front of you, striking half-volleys off the short hop on both forehand and backhand wings.

Key points

  • Lower the center of gravity and place the racket face directly behind the short hop
  • Use a compact block without taking a backswing

Common mistakes

Bending at the waist with straight legs rather than bending at the knees.
