Strokes
Hi,
I have a very aggressive backhand and its stronger than my forehand. I want to develop my forehand because I can't win points with my forehand against good players. Now I'm playing in a club. How can I improve my forehand in terms of technique, speed and consistency?
Hi Toe,
The main thing is to spend some time practicing the stroke to develop confidence in it. Take a look at the lessons on:
Forehand Topspin Against Block
The other thin got think about is the position of your feet. Often when players have stronger backhands they also turn their feet slightly to face their backhand side. Try to turn your feet a little to the forehand and see if that also helps.
When you need to reach that really wide ball the regular shuffle step just won't get you there in time so you need to use the crossover step. This is essentially a running action to get you to the ball as fast as possible.
