Best way to practice forehand

Training

My playing partner happens to be a lefty, so I have gotten a lot better with my backhand than I previously was. The problem is, when I go to play a righty, my forehand seems to be a lot weaker, as it doesn't get as much practice. Keep in mind me and my playing partner are at the intermediate level, so the majority of shots are cross court, hence why my forehand is not hit to much.

Thanks!

Hi Drew,

In your hitting or training times take the time to just practice on the forehand diagonal.  You can practice hitting as many balls as you can fro your forehand to his backhand corner.  It will probably also improve his backhand.

Initially when you are learning a new serve you can just get a bucket of balls and serve over and over again. But at some stage you need to practice your serve exactly as you would play in a match. In this session we focus on this. It's important that you try to make this practice as close to a real match as you can so that when you are in the real thing, you feel comfortable.
