I think Patrick is the best coach on TH-cam who explains every single detail very carefully. Thanks to him, I developed my skills a lot.
I agree 100 %. 👍👍
NOT
You are -- by far --the best tennis coach I have ever seen. Your explanations are so clear and focused directly on the things that truly matter. I appreciate it so much that I am compelled to contribute this modest amount as a token of my sincere gratitude. Thank you very much.
Totaly agree
I love how Patrick explains everything so clearly and calmly. Also using the court to draw on it is brillant, no need to have high tech to teach tennis well.
I see so often players using a huge swing when volleying. Doing 2-3 steps after the volley is also a great tip, thanks for the video.
Always encouraging the players and correcting them with constructive criticism ,I like that 👍🏻❤️🎾
Patrick's instructions are so simple and succinct, i can teach his lessons to my kids.
The best tennis coach in the world! Super Grateful! Bravo!
That was really helpful. In a future lesson, would like to hear your thoughts on high volleys too (when you can’t keep it compact in your arms).
I have the impression that you can always keep it compact, unless it's a smash. It's clearly harder when the volley is high but I think it's feasible.
Patrick thank you very much. U r one of a kind 🙏❤️🙏
I think we are the same age and I’m also teaching tennis and always love to watch your lessons. It’s inspiring ❤️
Thanks a lot for your detailed explanations about running volley shot. Key point is that after volley and then move forward 2 more footworks
Patrick does this automatically, but he is funny, then you relax... thenhe encourages you, then what he explains seriously will stick much better in the brain, and then at night when you are asleep it will all be processed, and you will remember it the next day and after that.
I tried this today, it really works! Thank you!
Thank you very much for your fantastic lessons!
Vous êtes magnifique!
Merci bien pour les vidéos et pour expliquer bien les petits nuances. J’ai eu bcp de problèmes avec les volleys. Mais j’améliore de peu en peu, grâce a vos explications: de Los Angeles
Patrick is the best trainer out there!
always amazing to see how you coach!
You are really a coach. I have a great appreciation to you!
Wow. After a lifetime of being told (and teaching others) not to run through a volley, the master shows me that was entirely wrong all along. I'm humbled.
You don't follow the ball in order to cover the down the line. The down the line pass isn't always your opponent's easier shot. You follow the ball in order to bisect (meaning position yourself exactly half way between)your opponent's possible angles of return.
I thought the same, Essential Tennis is explaining that very well.
PM is really not someone who a high level student should listen to. Lots of misconceptions being communicated here.
For a down the line shot, following the ball seems wrong, I'd need to run a little towards the middle to bisect the possible crosscourt or down the line shot of my opponent.
@@Osnosis Serena Williams would tell you otherwise.
I especially enjoyed this lesson. Superb!
Thanks Patrick, it's very very useful.
What a coach!!
So much patience needed to make player great even themselves doesn't believe in themselves.
Merci Patrick, vous êtes le meilleur 🏆
PeRFect tip, minimum movement by hand & maximum by legs & two steps after. I remember once Rod Laver quote that, you play volley by legs, i think that's what PM is teaching. Loved it.
After approach shot if the player is behind of service line at the moment when opponent hits the ball, position always must be in the middle when it's possible and then after first volley player need to follow the trajectory of the ball, based on the principles of court geometry. Respect to Patrick for his inspiration and enthusiasm!
Patrick great strategist. Only thing on strategy you go in covering the down line because you want your opponent to go cross court. But great video on why you shouldn't take steps after the volley if you can. How many balls did they hit into the net. I know not many players lob any more, but that's why you don't close into the net until you get a read on you opponents ball. Watch kyrgios quarterfinals US open 2022, closed in too quick to close got lobed set point.
Great tutorial just great volley technique 👍👍👍😀
Great to see quality teaching of volley...which has been under emphasized over recent years. So great Patrick!
Black top player's BH volley will be a strength; pink top player's Bh volley will have more errors in high stress points and when reacting to faster balls at the body. Why it is "too big" sometimes is the reason. What happens to control of wrist flexion when nervous? Where does her wrist move immediately after contact and what does that mean is happening before contact?
Excellent video ! Greetings from Brazil
Très bons conseils auprès de ces jeunes sur l'engagement du bas du corps, l'économie de gestes du bras et en même temps la nécessité de bien traverser la balle à l'impact.
Very useful tips for young people about legs work, short racket gesture and need to cross the ball during the volley.
As someone said once about Edberg : it seems he's sitdown at the net but there is no chair ! +1 sub for the channel.
당신의 열정에 박수를 보냅니다👏👏👏
Bonjour Patrick
Je voulais vous remercier pour tous les conseils que vous donnez.
J’ai pourtant une question que j’aimerais vous poser. Cela fait environ 4 ans que j’ai commencé le tennis malheureusement très tardivement 50ans. Je voudrais savoir si vous avez une astuce pour toujours regarder la balle quand on la frappe ? J’ai toujours tendance à regarder ou je vais l’envoyer et je n’arrive pas à supprimer ce défaut.
Merci d’avance
Gaelle
leave cam stady! this movement for every step they are doing makes me crazy watching it :D
Super leçon Patrick, com d'hab. Merci !
Welly presented and tipped
Great lesson coach, I'm going to work on this, I also take big cuts on my volleys leading to errors. I'm going to focus on using my leads to drive the volley and taking shorter swings.
Agree with the extra step but not with anything else .there is the first volley and second volley which can beverydifferent The emphasis is to be on upper bodystsbility as per McEnrie, Edberg or Sampras..being slow and balanced prior to the contact js of 5he essence for control
How will you take two steps on a low volley ?
Great lessons as always
Shocking, someone actually teaching coming to the net and volleying, this is unheard of in todays boring robotic tennis world. Good for him.
Cross court appraoch shot and then running to the net is what cost Federer the nitto ATP finals to Djokovic in 2012.
The BH volleys i see are all swing volleys, from the elbow. Many of the FH volleys are too.
Love the videos. I feel having a stabilizer on the camera might be better, or just even a tripod would be fine (it doesn't have to be 3rd person Hurt Locker footage). It can get a bit shaky at times when there's action.
It was great 👍💪🏼🎾
Please a mater class on overhead smashes
If only I had my tennis buddy to practice more.
Great video Patrick
Thanks for the lesson…The $5000 cheque is in the mail. 😆👍😉🎾👏
Another banger
The girls don't seem to be following the ball after hitting the approach shot, they are running toward the middle.
Is that SIMONA HALEP watching from the stands on the left at 06:20 ?
Great drill
Very nice !
You are The Coach 💪
I couldn't agree more
@@jasona.anderson1477 why ?
8:00 around this time the girl in the black top looks great on her finish but is missing because she’s not split stepping before doing the finishing sprint into the volley.
Yes (she is a little tired), but it shows that PM is wrong about running through the contact point. You only do that on an approach shot, not the volley.
I am working on my volleys and they are not great and one thing I have been told is i have too much of a back swing on my volleys. Is this correct for someone closer to my level around UTR but maybe not for better players because I noticed that the girl in pink was taking her racket back and sort of chopping at her backhand volleys. He was saying correct. Was he focused on something else when he was saying correct or is this sort of take back okay for better players. Examples of this around 7:20-7:40... I have never had any coaching until I joined a USTA team a few weeks ago. Only been playing 2.5 years and I have a lot of bad habits due to learning the wrong things online. TH-cam as a teacher can be a double edged sword.
is this more a doubles thing? i don't notice singles players doing moving volleys. unless i just have not notice.
Get that man a white board!
7:18 Sauce it up
superrrr
As a former professional, the guy is just saying common sense lol. And people in the comments think it’s something amazing.
🎉to coach beginners, get in their minds. Go PhD level and they will call you a fool.
the reason the balls getting caught on the net is because they are not bending much of their knees....so they only hit okay when the balls are high not low...
Info wasnt really well organized but each part is legit... he forgets to mention positioning and sprinting in depends a lot on the opponents and how good or bad your approach was, along with your own height and ability... There really is not much generic advice, there are tons of nuances depending on the situations... this is more like a quick summary of generic volleys but it wont work for everyone... The run fast short swing on a SLOWER ball is an excellent tip
No offense to the young ladies, but I’d like to see this exercise with a Holger Rune or another touring ATP pro…. They aren’t that developed in their technique so I see the points, but it’s not what I need…I need help with advanced backhand volley.
5:23
No se ve nada del dibujo en el suelo.
Can’t see what he’s drawing on the ground.. Need a white board to illustrate.
This one is not just bad, it is ridiculous. Positioning at the net is one of the last things you teach. Obviously, learning the SKILL comes before the APPLICATION of the skill. Positioning is hardly a factor when you have forced your opponent into few or only one option. If you approach after getting your opponent on the dead run, the opponent pretty much has a down the line pass available or a defensive lob. This is why Rafa has become the most efficient volleyer perhaps of all time. He has mastered the dump volley with his opponent in the hinterlands. Most pros today cannot finish a dead-handed dump volley to save their lives. Only an advanced volleyer comes to the net with only moderately getting the opponent out of position, thereby leaving the opponent with all three strong, passing options. And in this scenario, there is no split step. There is only a move to the anticipated selected pass of the opponent. The only place you pretty much know the ball will not be is up the middle. And these chopping, punch volleys are typical poor technique that does not even allow for the move through impact being recommended.
Too much back swing on the volleys.
Soo...you just run through a volley, huh?
Exactly - ridiculous advice.
No one volleys anymore dude 😂
Really check out Carlos
must be unconfortable to teach someone who is constantly laughing
I don't agree with "approach down the line" pattern. Firstly, you are the one hitting the hard shot (down the line) and you are giving away the easier shot (cross-court) to the opponent. As a proof, you can see in the video that the girls missed many approach shots down the line. On the other hand, approaching cross court has its own advantages 1) it breaks the pattern 2) you are hitting the easier shot (cross-court) and forcing the opponent to hit the harder down-the-line shot to pass you 3) Even though the net player has a larger court to cover the down the line pass, it should be easier to hit a volley in the direction they are moving. OTOH, if you hit a cross-court short angle pass, it is a tougher volley for the approaching net player because you are hitting behind them. As an experiment for point #3 - Have a student approach an inside-out shot, and move to the net following the ball. Feed some volleys on both sides to the student. You will notice that the student will make more forehand volleys and miss more backhand volleys. So the point is, if you approach cross-court, and your opponent tries to pass you down the line, it should be an easier volley.
The shot down the line as an approach does not have to be a tough shot. It should be when you are attacking a short ball and you do not have to kill the ball. You are closing and eliminating distance so you can hit a medium paced shot and it will feel tough for your opponent still because it is traveling a shorter distance. Hitting down the line is important is most cases because it allows you to bisect the angle at the net. Opposed to being on the baseline, you should be on the same side of the court as your opponent. It is harder to do that when hitting a cross court approach. Normally a cross court shot is the higher percentage shot but you would have to hit a really great angle on the cross court shot to make it a solid approach shot so because you are increasing the angle the percentage of the shot actually drops a good bit. And again it is more difficult to bisect the angle. This is not to say that it is never a good idea to hit cross court on an approach but if you do you have to make sure you do good damage with it. The down the line approach is a much better play. Remember you do not have to end the point on the approach or even the first volley. You certainly can sometimes but I think the approach is a set up, the first volley can be a put away or another set up depending on the situation and then you can end it on the 2nd volley.
girl with white skirt kinda bad ngl
at 8.01 she stops and its bad , at 8.32 she stops and its good :):):) make up your mind . Also the speed of feeding the balls is unrealistic for that level of players!!!! they will never get that close to play the volley !!!!sprinting doesnt allow you to make a good sideways movement in time but if you feed the balls at them they will never practice it ( advice feed 50% of your balls away from them !!!!
I dont know really...this guy sometimes struggle with english. Strange, for this level of academy.
Worst volley tutorial I've ever seen - PM hasn't got a clue about teaching tennis - he talks nonsense.
🤣
(clears throat) um...ok
Guy who coached nobody says what?
i guess we'll have to go to the Wakeley tennis academy to learn to volley
I mean you have your opinion which is fine; but you give no examples of his nonsense and what to do better, so you just sound like a hater.
9:08 she hitting literally single handed backhand instead of backhand volley (just take a look on slow those who doubt) and Patrik telling "yeah, ok!".
one more wasted practice for girls. better to forget absolutely everything he said here to them. coz everything was garbage.
These players are doing too much shoulder turn which takes away from the accuracy .this is why the modern European volleyer donor match up to Edberg or Mac, and primarily th3 reason that Alcarez was able to run down and pass the goat Novak , novak is a master on accuracy on the ground strokes better than anyone ever but is not so on the volleys . My suggestion is to look at Sampras, McEnroe and Edberg and even Leander , to understand how a modern volley is to be hit , accuracy on deep and angle volleys lar excellance due to upper body stability , and the slowness prior to the contact
