Tennis for the Beginners
HOtU Florence A. BGIIin, 1916 Sensation of
Courts, VOIIeys

The most successful volleys arc
made when the player is ten feet
from the net. It is one thing to
cover the width OF the court at the
baseline, but a vastly different mat
ter when you cover the court at the
net.
When you are at the baseline you
are in position to watch the flight Of
the ball and step from position TO
position and make the return, leis
urely, as rule, from the bounce.
But when you play at the net you
must flash from one spot to another
else you will be passed for an ace.
The chief requisites aor this
style of play are a keen eye that
can follow the bali from the in
stant II leaves your opponents
racquet, a good reach and agility.
Here you must step from the base
line to the net with all possible speed
rush to and fro across the net and at
intervals speed back to the baseline
for high lobs.
The net game is not essentially a
womans game, for il is too exhaust
ing. There are many girls playing in
the United States who ruin good
games by trying 10 volley when they
should stay back and drive.
Aim to take the ball as close 10
the net as possible, strike down and
deep into the court. II is much cas-
ier 10 smash the ball to a given place
in your rivals court IL you meet II
when high in the air and near the
net This virtually eliminates the
net from consideration Unless you
make deep volley you lose the ad-
vantage.
In the event it's a high ball one
shoulder high, for instance. hit IL a
sharp stroke. Push the lower balls
and you will find that a swift ball
will go back Of its own force. Hold
the racquet firmly, for the slightest
wavering will ruin the stroke.
Always run into a volley. II Isl
not a stroke which requires a swing
or follow through.

 dedicated to the great task remaining
 before us, that from these honored
