What happens if you don't make it up to the non-volley zone line and get caught in mid-court? This isn't the area you'd like to be, but it doesn't matter where you are on the court -- even if you're still at the baseline, halfway up to the non-volley zone line, or waiting there -- the moment your opponent's paddle makes contact with the ball, assume the ready position. Really do this! Don't just think, "Oh, I can just stop moving." Put your paddle up in front of you. Keep your weight on the balls of your feet and be ready to move, keeping your eye on the ball. Then, after you hit the ball, head for the non-volley zone as soon as it's safe to do so.
