clinic: VolleyUp-BangersDown


Adopt pro-volley technique to dominate the net!

Bangers take advantage of players by hitting hard and they just can’t stop it.

…but you can STOP them with a well-honed volley. We will discuss tactics and drill the skills it takes to manage those fast and crazy balls. Pro volley technique is effective for both defending and attacking at the net… and it comes with a huge boost in confidence.

Your approach to volleying will change dramatically as well as your preparedness for sudden attacks.

My coaching goes beyond technique. I’ll help you feel the optimal volley in your body, building instincts that will help you dominate the court, win points and take down those pesky bangers!

Individual attention ensures your grip, posture, and mechanics are on point. Together, we’ll drill fundamental techniques that build a rock-solid volley foundation.

You will leave with new confidence and drills to move forward in your game!

Players should be at least at the 3.0 level.

I ENCOURAGE YOU to register with a drilling partner so as to have a consistent partner to learn with as well as enhance your drilling routine together.

Tuesday, April 9th, 6:30pm to 9pm, $60

I thoroughly enjoyed your clinic! You are a great, common sense presenter, who did not overload us with information and shared practical, skill building drills! I appreciate you sharing your expertise in this sport that has captured SO many of us! BE WELL AND HAVE FUN!

Hey BYRD! Gotta thank you one more time for the super fab clinic today! Been making notes, trying to remember the best I can….but have to say….you were fabulous! As a teacher myself, I recognize that the ability to actually TEACH is totally different than the ability and skill set a person has that enables spectacular play. You have captured the art of teaching and harnessed the ability to communicate…optimal attributes for a great coach! And you are!

Byrd has a distinct talent to asses the range of skills of everyone in his small clinic and work to elevate their unique game rather than a one-size-fits-all approach to the game. Both his direct feedback, as well as his joy of players and game, will stick. This was the first clinic that challenged how I think about the game and I am quite delighted when I am challenged.

I thoroughly enjoyed the clinic and your style of teaching.  So much of my play depends on instinctual actions, and your drills totally tapped into that buried mind/body connection for me.  I already have put some of what we worked on into my game and find myself slowing down…or maybe the game just seems slower!  Who knows? Who cares.  It works.

I really enjoyed your camp…the 4 hours flew by.

You provided a good mix of theory, drills, strategy and stories from your playing career that made the camp very enjoyable.
