My son has such a hard time with volleys. He refuses to turn his shoulder and move into the ball. It's like he's trying to hit a forehand at the net and it's driving his coach crazy. She's constantly working with him to step in and close his shoulders so that he can direct the ball more efficiently. He just doesn't get it and it's driving us all crazy, LOL! He's 12, by the way. His backhand volley is beautiful, though, and he naturally steps in and blocks the ball better.
Any suggestions, exercises on court, or tips we could use to get him to move to a more natural volley? He is a good listener and tries to apply what the coaches tell him but if they don't work on it day in and day out, he loses the technique and reverts back to what he was doing before. Again, drives us all crazy, haha!
