Changing grip allowed
Rules
James Michael Patacsil Asked 7 years ago
Hello, I've got a question that's been bugging me for a while now. I've learned how to play by watching your videos which are really helpful! However, I've never had a coach or a mentor to train me, and this question has been on my mind.
Is switching between different grips allowed? Like when playing mid-game, can I switch to using the Shakehand grip from the Penhold grip then switch again if I ever wanted to?

Hi James,
Glad you are enjoying the site.
Yes you are allowed to switch grips whenever you want even mid rally. There are no rules as to how you have to hold the bat.
