Tennis - Backhand Half Volley

Explanation: This shot is a pick up shot used when a ball bounces at your feet.

How: The action is extremely short. The right knee goes towards the ball with a knee bend. What is important with the backhand is that the left arm is counteracting the right arm, going backwards to increase balance.

Points to remember: Your head needs to be held still on contact. This will increase consistency and accuracy.
