Step-By-Step
As you master this drill, you can move on to moving the ball up and down the wall. This is not easy, but it is a good challenge for you to work towards.
The next drill that you can do on the wall is changing between forehands and backhands. You can do this switching sides every other ball or every two balls. You will want to take a couple of steps back from the wall for this one so that you have time to switch. Be sure to have a pocket full of balls so that if you miss you can start over right away.

Key Points to Remember:
- Stay low. You won’t have time to allow your body to rise.
- Be precise with your targets. Your goal is to get the next volley right on your strings so you aren’t required to move too much.
- Maintain a firm wrist.
- Keep the same grip on both volleys. If you don’t have a slightly different grip for your forehand and backhand volley, this is a good drill for you to change that.
