What Is A Volley?


Just found a very interesting article on The Guardian website discussing this very issue. The author opts for the strict definition of a 'volley', which is not simply when a player "strikes the ball in the air", but when they "strike the ball in the air before it has bounced" put strictly: "a volley occurs when the ball is struck having not bounced since being touched by the previous player".
