Listen Later

In this 'Ask Me Anything' episode, I cover a variety of your questions from Instagram, email, and the membership.

Topics include 1st serve percentage, poaching, volley targets, 2-up vs 1-up 1-back, net positioning and movement, and more. In total, I answer seven questions. The first three are free to all, and the last four are for members only.

  • My 3-step system to improve first-serve percentage
  • Drills for improving your first serve
  • What to do at the net when there's a fast-paced crosscourt rally
  • Why the triangle pattern at the net is mostly useless
  • Should you poach anyway, even if your partner doesn't like calling plays?
  • The best volley targets in certain situations
  • When to hit at net player vs back deep to the baseliner
  • When it's okay to play 2-up instead of 1-up 1-back
  • How to handle 4.5 teams who have one player hitting high, heavy lobs, while their partner finishes at the net
