Spinning recovery
A description of a moment rather than a taught technique: a player spins right round to reach a ball that has got behind them, and plays it on the way through the turn.
Quando giocarlo
It happens when a ball off the side glass or a mishit ends up behind you. Better positioning usually removes the need for it.
Come giocarlo
Turn on the balls of your feet and keep your eyes on the ball. Play a high, safe ball as you come round. Finish the turn facing the net.
Errori comuni
Spinning blind and losing the ball. Hitting the ball into yourself as you turn.
