Strokes

My teacher-in-charge told my competitive team that we will be coaching the non-competitive players for the next few weeks. In the first week today it was a bit of a disaster, I had a very difficult time trying to teach them the correct motion for the forehand drive. So do you have any suggestions on how to hone their skills?

Hi Jasper,

I would try to follow the basics that we show you in the tutorials on the basic skills in the Beginner Basic Strokes section.  Hopefully this helps you out.

Oh well the first thing you mentioned in the introduction of the Beginner Basic Strokes is about the racket needing some grip. All the beginner players' racket are those premade rackets found at sports shops.
