Attack Your Opponent (3 Ways To Go To The Net)
There are a lot of videos about tennis practice, but much fewer videos talk about the tennis theory strategy like this. You're video is super helpful!
Excellent advice! No man's land has a new meaning for me. Thanks Ryan!
Happy to you!! Thanks for the support!!
Ryan, you're the best coach I've ever seen in my life. Your tips are so smart and you present them so concisely that it's so easy for me to remember and execute them when I play. Thanks a lot, you've won a subscriber for life.
Wow Andy!! Thank you so much!!! I’m thrilled to know you find the videos helpful. Have a great weekend thanks for the sub!!!!
I grew up in the 1950s/60s fearlessly attacking the net--becoming a solid net player. Even though I may have lost a few steps, your advice resonates in my tennis mind as I'm able to win points against heavy-hitting baseliners who seem clueless about how and when to come in or where to position themselves. This works well against pushers, too, who move well laterally, but feel threatened about moving in to the net. I'll forward this lesson to my doubles partner who likes to stay back, but doubles is a game where the advantage goes to the team that takes the net. Thanks for yet another great tip. I enjoy your enthusiastic teaching and precise, well-illustrated instructions. Thank you.
You’re channel gives literally the best tips really has helped me improve I went from missing every shot to being the second best on my high school team. keep up the great content man 👍
Dude that is the kind of testimonial that I love. So glad the videos have helped your tennis! And you’re now #2 on your team?! That’s amazing. Great job man!! Happy for you!!
Concise and precise. Great.
So glad you liked the video. Thanks!!!
I really rarely go online and feel uncomfortable when I hit volleys or get hit. But after your video I am very motivated and from now on I will dare to connect to the net more often. Great video 👍👍👍
This channel is gold
Thank you so much Ash!
Great suff, Ryan!
Great stuff, Ryan, especially in combination with your video "How To Serve & Volley Like Roger Federer". I've been playing tennis for 30 years now and love to play serve & volley as my childhood hereos were Edberg and Sampras. After all these years I'm realizing through your videos that I'm split stepping too late after the serve and that I'm playing the first volley too close to the net. I've been rushing into the service box like crazy with the result of often being passed left and right.
For me your channel and Nikola Aracic's "Intuitive Tennis" are the top two tennis channels out there!
Golden advice! Thank you so much definitely using these strategies in my next match
So happy to hear that. Thanks for the support!
Just HAD to check where the serve&volley GREATS splitstep after the serve (I would have bet A LOT of money on "on the service line" or even "between service line and the net") - and you were absolutely RIGHT with "in no man's land" - and that's what I'm gonna do next - THANK YOU Ryan ... from FloRyan !
Haha well thanks for NOT taking my word for it and for checking out yourself. A lot of players tell me I’m wrong without looking it up. Thanks so much!!!!!
Thanks Ryan. Great tips, as always, clearly presented and illustrated!
Rick you’ve quickly become one of my biggest fans!!! Thank you so much for the continued support my friend. Really appreciate it. 👍
amazing coaching, very clearly presented. thanks so much!
Thank you so much, your way of expressing your teaching is great and stays in my mind. I have lost games because of not being able to capitalise when putting my opponent on 'the back foot' or by being too scared to go to the net when the ball is coming in short...
Thanks thanks thanks ,loving watching you lessons. I am recently retired and taken to playing tennis a game I have always enjoyed watching but not much time to play , your lessons have been very very helpful.Thank Louie.
Man, this is a second video I watched from you - I totally need to practice these strategies on my court... And you have just became my favourite tennis-related channel. Really good work! Thanks!!!
Wow thank you so much!! Keep me posted on how the strategies work for you! Thanks again!
These are the most intelligent and pertinent videos I've seen about tennis. Thank you.
Wow thank you Alan!
jeez, i've been struggling getting on the net....this is all i needed. thank you so much
Hope this helps you!!
Going through all these videos. Love the strategy videos with the white (blue) board!
Absolutely brilliant series of videos. Many thanks.
Thank you for your coaching , you truly have useful information man !
I love to use serve and volley to mix things up, to deal with pushers, and in doubles in general. There’s nothing more fun in tennis than crushing a big serve then following it up with a volley or smash winner like Pete Sampras.
Really ❤ wonderful technique...coach meaning you
Bravo, Ryan. I'm gonna try these strategies as soon as I can. thanks for this vid
Very helpful tips on when to come to the net. Thank u
Thank you so much!!
I came across many helpful channels about learning tennis, but this is the best one!
Another great video from Ryan! The podcast is also very useful!
Three ideas/requests for videos, Ryan:
- Analysis of some videos where players are going to the net in the wrong moment!
- Explanation of how Diego Schwartzman is managing to win against the other huge guys, being so short.
- Explanation of how Andy Rodick was able to serve so fast, being not that tall.
Thanks!
Excellent video! A great reminder that aggressive tennis = winning tennis.
Great advice! Just wondering what do you mean by "safety post" mentioned in 10:58, to keep the opponent inside the court?
Another great vid!! Short, fast, sweet!! Thanks!!! Ryan Reidy!!!
Thank u ryan,beautifully expained 👍
Brilliant advice. Thanks for your great videos 👍
Thank you! So glad you like them!!!
Well what can I say? For me your explanations are really great.You understand tennis so well..
Thank you Ryan👍 I'll try this at my next match.
I once heard John McEnroe on of the best serve/volley net player explaining his percentage probably this way. 25 % of the time you get passed, but 25% of passing shots go out or into net. 25 % are relative easy shots to make a winner so you just have margin of 25 % of volleys/ overheads that are challenging but within your ability to make consistently. If you can keep unforced errors to,a minimum and make a majority of the last 25 % of the shots you will win more points at the net than you lose.This also helps to keep your opponent off balance so they can not control the points. I worked long and hard on my net game and it helped me move up through the skill level rating in USTA play. Once you get to that 4.0-4.5 rating You can’t just hit and hope your opponent hits it out once you get to this skill level. Besides serve/ volley, chip + charge make the game fun. Don’t be afraid to lose some points, games or sets. Play to win points don’t wait for errors from your opponent.
Mostly awesome tennis channel, thanks so much. Hope to see you at Zoom sessions soon.
Thanks so much Lily!
It's good to receive advice from Roddick 😅
La capsule est très instructive bravo Hats off to U
I absolutely love your video/videos! Straight to the point, concise... I will definitey try to make the best of your attcking tips on one of my opponents. I have a guy who I think is no better than me but he keeps winning all the matches, I feel I need to change sth - mix it up, come to the net. Thank you!
Thank you so much!!! So happy you like the videos. Try to get to net at least once per game on average. Doing that will give you a better chance over the r long term. Keep me posted about what happens in your next match with him!!! Thanks!!🎾😊👍
Fantastic information
Awesome tips especially on split stepping. Do you also think we should close the net on drop shots?
you are literallly my coach Ryan
keep up, greetings from palestine.
Went and checked out a video on the top ten all time S&Vers and damned if he isn’t right - they all split stepped before the service line! I never woulda thunk it, but it’s twoo! This is the last time I ever second-guess this guy. He’s too good. Damn, he’s good...
Haha thanks so much for the kind words!!!
Awesome man.
Helpful advice
Conseils très précieux. Merci encore.... ;-)
Thank you so much!!
Great video
Thanks Ryan, but I have an issue that many players lob the ball back over my head as I’m coming in. How do I defend back?
very good. thank you. subscribed.
Amazing!
loved this. i'm like a rec 3.5 who aspires to be a serve and volley player, but at the rec level i sometimes feel like a dick coming to the net so much, because i think it's less fun to play tennis when someone is trying to take time away from you and disrupt your chance of having any rhythm or a nice rally. does that make sense? so then i end up serve and volleying less because it seems so aggressive, haha. but it's my favourite thing!
Haha you owe it to yourself to play tennis the way you want to and the way that helps you improve. Going to the net is a great way to learn how to best better players. Thanks for watching !!
Very nice
Thank you
GREAT !!!
In singles an important point in my experience is to approach the net having played a down the line shot, not a cross court shot which opens up the angles for being passed at the net. I often get tempted to approach with a cross court shot which rarely works unless it's very aggressive.
It’s really frustrating to watch the pros bang out balls in a long rally’s, especially when you can see that they have the opportunity to employ these tactics. That’s why the same three guys win al the majors year after year. I mean anyone a long rally at 50/50, but getting to the net is key. Great content.
Yes!!! You’re 100% correct. Somebody needs to start going to net a ton and they’ll have a chance to beat the big 3. Same with the wta
@@2MinuteTennis your comment is right and wrong. Right - someone needs to take chances against those big 3 devils. Wrong -( maybe idea for your next video) - those devils play percentage game ( baring Federer) they don't take much risk . May be you can make a video about taking risks and percentage play.
Great stuff
Thanks Radu. Appreciate the support. 👍
awesome content
Great !!
Thanks JV. So nice of you to say that. 👍
Great Video 🎾
Thanks so much Gary!!!!
Good Afrânio! I am not a good player. But I like to go to the net. You did not mention when the player stroke a drop shot. Always when I hit a drop shot I go to the net. Is it right?
I am play at USTA 4.0 level in bay area. I soo want to come to the net especially against some players where i know the longer the point lasts, they win, but I feel scared of making mistakes if i do so. Therefore, would it be fair to say that when serving and volleying, it is better to serve on backhand on both deuce and AD side atleast for recreational players b'cos backhands are usually weaker or less preferred at rec level? Your thoughts?
So here is the deal. In order to use a strategy like going to the net you net the necessary skills to make approach shots, volley, half volley and overheads. To do this you need some coaching and lots of practice doing drills and playing practice points, practice sets etc. Don’t forget practice tie breakers. Having practice partners that want to work on and improve their skills is a key part. Remember to,practice the way you want to play. Also when you play a match get into the routine to moving in to the net early in the first set to try to develop confidence and get into the rhythm. Don’t play the entire set or match from the baseline then decide to try to hit a volley on set or match point. Learn to play according to the game and set score. Put pressure on your opponent when it is your add or your up in the set or match. Do lots of drills to build skills.
有用！
you are awesome ..man, greets from Bogota. After so many years i´m learning how to serve, and now I´m just feeling like i´ve discovered the way to destroy my neighbor
More videos please!!!!
Haha thanks!! Don’t worry making about 5 videos per week!!
Gracias Ryan 🤡
What does split stepping mean?
It’s a hop that pros use to help them slow down and quickly change direction every time the opponent hits. All players should do it. Watch any Match and instead of watching the person hitting watch the other player. You’ll see them hop as the opponent.hits.
@@2MinuteTennis Got it. Thank you for the rapid response. Thank you for the great contents and for your presentation. Very helpful!
Problem is I often get lobed... how to avoid that?!
Wanna learn serve & volley but my serve and volley are weak lol.
Haha that might hurt your chances. In all seriousness just practice it and you’ll improve. Thanks for the support!
Do you think the fact that most recreational players are uncomfortable at the net is partly explained by the limited number of serve volley players on the tour? When I watch tennis it’s a baseline battle and I wonder if recreational players think that is the way to play to succeed?
Honesty no. I think it’s bc tennis coaching teaches a one grip system that doesn’t allow lower level athletes to succeed at the net. Players have weak volleys with a continental but are told it’s the best they can do bc they don’t have time to adjust their grip (which isn’t true at all). My players I’ve going to the net bc they have a grip system that actually allows them to have success.
You go in to the next and they lob you,that’s the point 😄
What about coming to the net after hitting a drop shot?
Yep! So important. That’s included in “when you get your opponent in trouble”.
Has there even been a two minute video ?
Haha yes. I’ll give you the background. In 2014 I started the ordinal “2MinuteTennis.net”. It was my first website with a video library of over 300 videos covering all aspect of tennis. Each video was 2 minutes long. I started growing on social media (IG, Facebook, tiktok), and decided to keep the name (since I had a following) but changed the format. Just like “Facebook” isn’t a book of faces, sometimes the name stays while the actual product evolves. Now you could say that 2MinuteTennis helps you play better in 2 minutes. Have a great day!
However, a kick serve would allow one to get closer to the net
Please define split-step.
Salz had an ok serve but lacked in tactics movement toughness groundstrokes etc.
Ryan, where are based? I like to connect you for my kid tennis coach.
I’m near Philadelphia. USA. I also do private Zoom video lessons. Go to 2MinuteTennis.net to learn more!! Thanks for the question!
@@2MinuteTennis I will do it . Thank you
Very nice 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
Bs
What specifically about this video is bs?
Lobbing deep also gives ample time to push up closer to and/or charge the net
