	Volley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A volley in tennis is a shot that is hit before the ball bounces on the ground.
		Generally a player hits a volley while standing near the net, although there are instances where it is executed farther back, in the middle of the tennis court or even near the baseline.
		This is called a half volley (although technically it is not a volley) and is one of the most difficult shots in tennis; John McEnroe, who had superb hand-eye coordination, was a master of it.

	Biomechanics of the Volley (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		The volley is typically played at or near the net and contact is made before the ball bounces on your side of the net.
		Most punch volleys are hit with an abbreviated swing, however a study by Elliott (1994) highlighted the fact that the racket was taken beyond the shoulder in the backswing of both forehand and backhand volley when hit at the service line.
		On both the forehand and backhand volleys the racket head was found to be slightly open at contact, however, in comparing the backswings, the rotation of the upper limb laid the racket more open on the backhand side (Elliott, 1994).

	Serve and volley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Serve and volley is a strategy used in lawn tennis (and rarely in real tennis) where a player serves and immediately moves forward to make the next shot a volley and hopefully a winner.
		The aim of the serve and volley is to put immediate pressure on the opponent, so that good "returns" must be made, or else the server can gain advantage.
		Even Pete Sampras, known for his great serve and volley game, did not always come to the net behind the serve on slower courts; particularly on the second serve.

	REVOLUTIONARY TENNIS volley
		This helps explain why you have trouble exchanging volleys at the net in doubles, you're expecting, wanting, a groundstroke to hit against, and when it's a volley coming at you it's tough to hit a volley in return (you either whack it or fail to hit a good one).
		A forehand volley is tennis' one unnatural stroke.
		These parameters are not there for a volley: you hit the ball before it bounces, not for distance, and it's not as wide from you.

	The drop volley: it’s not just how, it’s when
		The definition of a well-executed drop volley is to hit it so that the shot is unreturnable on one bounce.
		In this photograph, the volleyer will need to hit a perfect drop volley to win the point because his opponent is well inside the baseline and prepared to move forward quickly.
		Given this positioning, the drop volley is too risky to attempt at this stage during this particular point.

		Many players work on their volleys by standing a couple of inches from the net and hitting slam dunks.
		That’s where most of your first volleys are going to be, and if you play doubles, many points will be played from that spot.
		If your backhand volley is reliable from midcourt, it’s going to work fine as you close in on the net.

	Quick Tips for Better Volleys - Tennis
		Your goal should be to have the same contact point for every volley, and the way to achieve that is to move your feet and position yourself for each shot.
		The volley is not really a "swing" at all, but rather a controlled "punch".
		Once you've mastered the volley, you can control more points at net and be a dominant force in your social Sunday doubles match, or take the next club doubles tournament title.

		Have her hold the racquet in a position that mirrors the end of the volley preparation position; i.e., wrist cocked and locked, racquet face parallel to the net, laid back, and slightly raised.
		Once the student gets the feel for hitting the volley in this way, have her stand up and hit regular volleys, again trying to put the ball in the basket.
		In subsequent lessons, any time the feel for the volley weakens, have the student briefly resume the sitting position to reestablish the mechanics of the stroke.
