Fast Hands Tips

  • Paddle out in front – contact out in front

  • Short to No backswing

  • Compact follow through point where the ball is placed

 

Cooperative Acceleration Drill

  • Players stand straight on to each other and begin slow controlled volleys

    • Placement can be anywhere

  • Slowly increase the speed of the volley rally to see how fast you can keep it going

 

Block vs Counter Attack

Block 

  • Relaxed like a summer breeze

  • Use when it favors you

    • Are you in trouble?

    • Are you losing all the hand battles?

    • Are you trying to slow them down?

    • Are you jammed up?

Counter

  • Accelerate through the ball

  • Expect it to come back EVERY TIME

  • Use when you are balanced and ready to keep fighting

 

Block Volley Combo Drill

  • Players start straight on at NVZ

  • 1 player is hitting regular punch volleys

  • Partner is alternating between block and volley

  • Focus is to feel the difference in each and be able to switch at will
