Direct Shot

• Definition: A volley shot taken straight off the receive.
• Steps:
  1. Throw the ball up and forward.
  2. As it starts landing, take a step forward and lift your shooting leg.
  3. When the ball is at head level, start swinging your leg.
  4. Technique:
     • Don't swing super fast; guide your foot to the ball.
     • Focus on follow-through for power.
     • Hit the ball with the top of your foot and aim for the center of the ball.
     • Tilt your leg down as you make contact.
     • Keep your head down and move forward with the shot.
• At an angle:
  • Step to the side instead of getting directly under the ball.
  • Lift your shooting leg at an angle and tilt your chest to the side.
  • Use your foot as a pivot to rotate your body for extra power.
  • Practice against a wall or with a friend.

Two Gun Volley

• Misconception: It's not a receive to a half-around-the-world and then a volley.
• Correct Steps:
  1. Stand on your shooting foot and throw the ball up.
  2. As it drops, hop off the same foot and shoot.
  3. Repeat, but this time pretend to shoot with the other foot.
  4. Go around the ball and shoot with the planted foot.
  5. It's similar to a reverse crossover but with a shot instead.
  6. Practice against a wall.
