Net Game

Net Game

The net game plays a very important role in tennis.  Although the singles game has changed dramatically in the last 30 year from a net-oriented game to a baseline-oriented game, volleys and overheads still remain one of the main tools used by singles players to finish points and the percentage of points won when charging the net is quite high and very significant.
