Rotating for forehand
Strokes
omkar mankame Asked 10 years ago
Hi Sir,
I am a lefty beginner and I really love to play the game. I have also joined a club recently. However I am not able to play Forehand strokes properly. My stance first was to squat a little towards my right hand side and playing defensive. I now stand parallel to table but still find it very awkward to play forehand shots. Please help.

Hi Omkar,
It may just be a matter of turning your body slightly before hitting the ball. You can do this with your feet or by rotating you waist. This will get your bat in a better position to hit the ball cleanly.
