Forehand Volley Technique - How to Get Power, Spin and Control
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 вер 2024
- With the correct swing path you can control the racket head and achieve power and control. Going out towards the target sounds correct but actually creates instability. I have had a lot of success having players finish their volley back in their ready position after striking the ball with backspin. Here I work with a division 1 player, helping him to improve his forehand volley. Hope it helps you too.

Pure genius.
Doesn't insist on changing the grip, can demonstrate both the old swing and the new one with ease, and busts a common myth on volleys - that everything has to always go forward.
Thank you!!
Looks so natural. Good thoughts coach, thanks
Exactly. Right to left. It’s natural. And it keeps the wrist out of the stroke.
Excellent as usual! Thank you Tom!
Excellent no nonsense tip!
Good stuff as always. If you’re ever in El Paso, TX, let me know, not to cold in the winter and relatively inexpensive.
Excellent advice. What is the equivalent concept(fix) to work on the backhand side, to prevent opening up the racket face too much/early (and sometimes too much in front = weak)?
The backhand volley is very different, i'll try to do a video on it soon.
Tom, I’m really appreciating your content as your information on the wrist with the forehand has been quite helpful.
Do you think rotating the shoulders through the hit on the volley helps take some of the racket play out of the forehand volley?
"serving me a beer..." 1:12 love this!!!
Fortunately, I discovered TPA, because it has really helped my learning and evolution in tennis !
The explanation and demonstration of the blows is done in a very natural way, which makes everything easier.
For example the simple tip about not recommending to imitate Federer's forehand (my favorite player) because there can be a tendency for the arm to become too stretched and rigid, causing the same to happen at the shoulder level; that is, the adjustments that need to be made according to the variety of balls we hit, need to have freedom at shoulder level in order to allow adjustments to be made.
Being Portuguese, I apologize for eventually not being so clear in the message I intend to convey.
Congratulations coach for that!
You look like the RF lookalike.
PS: At what age did you start playing tennis ?
Thanks
Thanks for the comment! Ive played from 1 year old, maybe earlier.

What ?! 😲 😳
Now I understand your way of speaking and teaching tennis ....
@@rucas10 well it’s important that when you’re one and two years old etc that your parents are letting you seeing balls bouncing etc. it wasn’t like I was learning forehand technique at 1 haha, but I was developing skills for sure.
@@TomAllsopp Of course, I understood.
It's a bit like me with a soccer ball, ever since I was a kid.
We are not learning the technique (football is different) but we are more comfortable with the ball, motor coordination etc...
What I meant was that the tennis racket and the tennis ball are like an extension of your body.
You can see that it's all very natural in the way you speak, see, perceive and especially feel the tennis racket and ball.
No Nonsense. Best Videos on Utube when it comes to tennistechnique. I must say the round swing on a forehandvolley is something u see with many pros but honestly imho it is a bit of a sloppy technique. to be supercorrect, shouldn't you finish with the edge of the racket pointing into the direction where you played the ball (similiar as on a backhand volley)?
I look sloppy?
@@TomAllsopp if you will
Coach, a question: which racquet are using?
Tom, How do you feel about bent elbow to bent elbow on most forehand volleys? Do you ever worry about the circular swing path corrupting some of the direction when the ball is hit harder at the volleyer?
I guess what I'm saying is the student is going bent elbow to straight elbow which obviously changes the racquet face and creates a one-dimensional ability to control the volley, similar to what the Punch concept does in making volleyers lose feel.
Left arm
Just copy feds left arm
I feel like my personal volleys are not fully continental. They are in between the eastern and continental grip.
That has been my preference naturally, even on backhand volleys.
Anybody else use the volley grip like that?
Yes, Nadal.
It’s called Australian. Most juniors and club players use it around there. It’s actually better than Continental but does require a grip change for the backhand volley. And if you’re not over 6-feet tall, it’s the preferred grip. You gotta make a small change for the backhand volley though. Or it’ll be way too much underspin.
@@swalterstennis it's called Australian? Oh wow interesting. Thanks I didnt know
The problem starts when he keeps the lft with the right
1:11 I don't see the issue with that
I know what you mean. So many things I didn't see problems with until I started studying with Tom! But now I understand - in brief, it's just not as stable.
He always has a fruity wrist haha
I heard him refer to this on another video but wasn’t sure I heard right! Definitely not politically correct! Hope people can take a joke. 😭
if the kick serve tech. is free.... put it on your utube . How silly you are setting up for a link for a free kick serve tech... really!!!!
Because you gotta sign up, fruitcake.
Need lovely 😍💋 💝💖❤️
