Backhand development
Strokes
Abhiram Reddy Asked 11 years ago
To add offensive to my backhand , I initially set out to learn the side-spin flick. Most of the times I am unable to put side-spin on the ball and simply flat hit it (plain flick).But when I do succeed with the stroke I get better results. Which stroke should i pursue first? Or can I try learning both together?
The end result I want is to bring proficiency to my backhand in general including having a confident BH topspin off any ball. What is the order of strokes you suggest I start practicing? I can already block moderately well and do the counter-hit to some extent.

Hi Abhiram,
I would focus on the counter hit first, then the topspin, then the Flick. Then you can move on to the sidespin flick. It is a matter of getting the feel for the ball on the backhand side first.

Push Variation
Once you have learnt the push stroke it is important to be able to vary the stroke to get better results.
