Avoid These 3 Common Volley & Overhead Mistakes (Tennis Singles Strategy Explained)
1. Low volleys should be hit down the line.
2. High volleys should be hit if ball is not high enough for an overhead. Player should use opposite hand to guide racket forward like moving along a bookshelf.
3. Hit your overhead at 50% and place it away from opponent rather than crushing it and missing a lot

This was one of your best videos yet. I have always had trouble returning volleys, especially high volleys as you explain them, and I'm the "never had a tennis lesson in his life" guy with his off- hand dangling uselessly down by my side, but when I tried your technique with both arms up in the air, the difference in my ability to effectively return the ball was truly astonishing! Also, loved your counter-intuitive explanation of why it's more effective to return low volleys "down the line" in front of you rather than attempt cross-court - can't wait to put this into practice. Also, love the way you effortlessly grab the ball out of the air with your racket. Thanks coach Ryan "I've got this!"

Btw, my tennis has gotten so much better watching your videos. All aspects of my game have improved. Needed it to keep up with my high school aged boys. Thanks!

Perfect. Exactly what i need for my next matches... In the previous rounds i met lots of pushers and i have been making far too many unforced errors.

Good tips Ryan. I usually go cross court for low volleys to go for a sexy winner (low percentage) and I also swing down for high volleys instead of keeping the head high on the finish. My technique will benefit from these tips.

So many useful tips in this video! I have long wondered how to choose between a high volley vs overhead, and now that you've demonstrated, I have a much better idea.

Thanks for the 2nd tip with the non-hitting hand...no wonder I hit easy volleys to the net sometimes. I probably bring my racquet down much more than I realise.

Would love to see how you recommend to manage high volley on backend side as well. Will practice this, it's definitely a mistake I was doing

How can you tell when to hit a high/medium volley or a swinging volley? Also, do you want to aim your high volleys deep or go for a sharp angle? Good lesson, thanks!

Hi there Ryan! Do you remember the settings for your Spinshot for the high volley? I have a Spinshot myself and would like to create a Drill with low medium and high volleys each side. Of course I can also check it out myself by trial and error. Thanks 🙌

Great video! A pusher I play often hits short low drop shots. When I run up and hit it like you showed, he lobs me every time. Should I try to hit a drop shot back to him?

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind! I hope that I won't forget in the real game...🤣 I want to ask about backhand... I've watched your backhand instructions and tried to follow them. But compared to forehand, I felt like the ball was far from my racket and ended up hitting ball weak and short. It feels like the distance between the racket and the ball is different to forehand🤔 If you leave a comment, it will be so helpful🥲
