VOLLEY WOES: Stop dumping volleys into the net

Missing shots that seem easy, like the high volley, can be especially frustrating. Most of the time, you’ll miss a high volley because of your balance. Players try to step into the ball, and when done incorrectly it limits the freedom of their swinging arm. Try to play the volley with an open stance, and be sure to maintain good dynamic balance.
