Hi can you please make a Video for Backhand dominant Players. If they are playing Backhand from the middle how often they should use their forhand from the middle i mean when and also Not to be predictable. And also how much placement patterns i should use in a Game and also when to Change Tempo in my topspins AS i am playing the backhand and forhand ?

Hi Gabriel,

Sounds like a good idea for a video.  We will film this next time we are filming.

For now some things to consider:

  • The middle ball is a really important part to practice in training.  Making good decisions in this era is often overlooked.  Spend time with your training partner placing a lot of balls there.
  • Whether you play a forehand or backhand in that area depends a lot on what happened with the previous ball and your movement
  • Think about the angle you want to play the next ball to
  • Also then think about your strengths

Stay tuned.

In this video we talk about the position of your legs, weight transfer, varying the finish position, incorporating footwork, the use of your wrist, and the angle of your bat for the stroke.
