Server and Volley

A tennis strategy where the player serves and then charges forward to the net for a volley off of the return.


Hitting a first and/or second serve and immediately following it into the net. This is a very aggressive style and the points are quick. This player has a strong first AND second serve, outstanding volleys, quickness, reach and strength. Sometimes this type of player is not ultimately confident in their groundstrokes and prefers to play shorter points.
