at the net on the higher incoming ball elevator up — it is till volley and drive out not down
some players turn to the entourage too off– control both your effort and attitude
Stan drives his backhand from the inside shoulder
when you come to the net just before the opponent hits do a split step and get your racquet up in front of your body
have a ritual that gets you going
spotting is bouncing with the purpose of picturing how far in front and how far left or right the toss should go

on your preparation turn completely then bring your backside through on the hit
when you come to the net boogie in and center your racquet in front of your body
get your back knee below the flight path and stay core balanced
on the serve finish rotate your hips and shoulders and bring the hitting hand to the opposite pocket
on the forehead volley break out get the racquet above the wrist
the key to getting the rotation of the hips and shoulders the front foot must open– get the front toe pointing more toward the net
on the two-handed backhand we like both elbows up on the rotation finish
