This footwork pattern gives you more court cover and allows you to move through the ball making contact and shot execution easier.
ā 1. To master the two step volley footwork you must focus first on opening up the hip of as you rotate out outside foot (left foot on backhand / right foot on forehand).
ā 2. Step with the outside foot in the direction of the oncoming ball, the further the ball the bigger that step.
ā 3. Load your outside foot to push you forward during contact and landing on the opposite foot.
ā 4. Complete the move by getting the outside foot to catch up and back in line with your body. You want to be sideways onto the direction you need to recover.
ā 5. Make the recover step (either side step for closer recovery / cross over step for further distances)
ā 6. Split step and you are ready to go again! Enjoy feeling like Roger Federer at the net š
