Refining volley technique for players transitioning from tennis.

PadelJo
🏆 #1 Takeaway - How to improve volley technique when transitioning from tennis?
Adjust your contact point to hit the ball more "next to you" instead of too far in front, focus on forward follow-through for depth and slice, and refine body positioning and preparation (like lifting the left elbow for backhands) to increase pace and control.

What Your Guru Thinks

This covers some key adjustments if you're coming from tennis and finding your volleys aren't as effective in padel. Coach Sven works with Mathijs to address common issues like hitting the ball too far in front and how to achieve better depth and slice. Focusing on contact point and body mechanics can really help you put more pressure on your opponents from the net. It's useful stuff for adding more punch to your volleys.

Ladies and gentlemen welcome back on the channel! Today we focus on the forehand volley and the backhand volley of Mathijs. Mathijs has been playing padel for around 6 years after playing a lot of tennis. This is also why we trained his volleys.

In my opinion most tennis players feel like they have good volleys and they don't have to train that. I think it's one of the most important things to change, because it will hurt you on the long run. It will be very difficult to change your volley after playing a lot of padel.


Most tennis players have the tendency of hitting the volley early and that is wrong. You will hit your volley very flat and you will be unable to generate slice with the volleys. So in this video we will focus on hitting the ball later and to find ways of generating the right amount of slice.
