Hi Coaches,everytime I play doubles, I can't have my shots right or it goes out especially attacking shots, maybe I'm too scared to disappoint my partner or I have wrong position? so how can I fix this?

Hi Ivandri,

Moving in doubles is important so that you get back into position to make the next shot.

It could be that you are more hesitant because you are worried about your partner.

Try to play your strokes naturally and move with your partner to get better position to make your strokes.

Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
