Hi Sir

Thank you

Hi Kelly,
There are two main ways of moving. You can either move sideways after you have your hit or you can circle around and move to the back. The most important thing is that you are playing your shot and then moving as soon as possible to allow your partner to get in to play the next ball.
When you are not hitting you also need to try to be as close as possible to be bale to move into get the next ball.
Still always use your side stepping footwork to move.
It is all about efficient movement.
Good luck with your doubles.
Question actions
When playing penhold players it is important to remember to first analyse your opponent as you would if they used any grip. What are their strengths and weaknesses? A common weakness of penhold players is their forehand block especially against a slow spinny topspin. 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.
