Tennis strategy

Serve-and-volley is a style of play in tennis where the serving player moves quickly towards the net after hitting a serve, to attempt to hit a volley afterwards. In the serve-and-volley playstyle, the server attempts to hit a volley (a shot where the ball is struck without allowing it to bounce), as opposed to the baseline game, where the server stays back following the serve and attempts to hit a groundstroke (a shot where the ball is allowed to bounce before contact is made). As a returner (receiver, volleyer) of a serve, the player may also attempt to hit a half-volley, instead of waiting
