advanced skills clinic: pro volley technique


Shut Bangers Down!!!

Proper volley is an ESSENTIAL counterpart to the soft game.

Your physical and tactical approach to volleying WILL change dramatically in this clinic. We will discuss, drill and train 3 different types of volleys. Your confidence at the net will swell. You will move from FEARING the banger to FEEDING ON the banger… from blocking defensively to volleying offensively!

EAT BANGERS FOR DINNER!!!! LET’S GO!!!

I will utilize custom drills to teach your mind how to volley correctly, but also, and more importantly, these drills will let your body experience what a proper volley FEELS like.

I will spend time with each participant individually to give guidance on correct grip and body mechanics, and as a group we will focus on fundamental techniques of proper volley.

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.

Wednesday September 13th, 12:30pm to 3:30pm, $55

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.
