The player (A) is the server, player F (or a coach) is ready to return.

Player A will hit only topspin/kick or slice serves so that he’ll have time to move up to the net. Player F will try to return all the balls back toward the approaching player (A) for him to practice first volley placement.

The point can be or not played out – the main purpose of this drill is for the server to practice approaching serve (slice or kick), move up to the net and execute a well placed first volley.

The coach should give his feedback in regard to player A’s approach and volley execution.
