Are the shots such as a straight drive, a cross-court, and a drop shot. The drop is a basic shot and it’s a straight line down to the back wall either on the back end or whore inside of the core on the forehand side.
From the forehand side, you have your left leg in front of your right leg with both legs about shoulder width apart. When you swing the momentum will cut onto your left leg, therefore, your stance will be stable and you won’t fall and your body should be facing the side wall. The swing starts with your racket up so that the grip is around ear level in order to generate power in the shot.
Then the swing starts with the elbow bent in a v-shape upon impact of the ball the arm extends then you hit it and then it’s the follow through all the way back up to the opposite side of the ear. This will generate maximum power in the swing and is important to get it right because it’s the base of the whole game.
On the backhand side, the right leg would be in front of your left leg and the swing starts from your ear level and you follow through once you get the hang of it.
You can try the volley drive show next. With a coach or player to feed your volley, you hit the ball and same way like a normal. A straight drive would be the first choice but the second shot would be the cross-court shot with the ball going from one side of the court to the other. Ideally, it should land in the back corner to put more pressure on your opponent. For this shot, you need to open your body a little more and get the right angle. The swing is exactly the same except you’re just hitting the ball in a different angle in a different place on the wall.
As you can see previously with the drive you hit the ball in this area of the wall. However, with a cross-court, you should hit towards the middle of the wall. The backhand cross-court is just the opposite from the forehand: right leg in front as usual and you’re aiming the ball around the middle area of the front wall.
The third shot is the boast. The boast will hit the side wall first and then the front wall. On the forehand side your stance is the same but you position your left-hand shoulder towards the sidewall and aim the ball around here on the sidewall. If you aim higher the boast will go higher and this will allow more time for your opponent, which is not ideal. But if it’s too low it will hit the tin and you lose a point due to your mistake; so you need the practice to get it right. Aim for this area in the side wall and hit it towards the direction on the backhand side.
It’s the opposite on the backhand position stance with your right leg in front and your right shoulder should be facing the wall and hit the ball around the middle height area of the sidewall.
For the volley shot, it’s the same but you’re hitting the ball at a higher point. You can aim lower on the sidewall so it will cause the ball to be quicker and allow for a lot less time for your opponent.
