General Doubles Tactics

Strategy

Stefan Arak Asked 13 years ago

Dear Alois and Jeff,

I love the videos you've made, however I can't seem to find any videos that provide guidance for doubles play. I understand you may not be as proficient in doubles as you are in singles, but do you have any tactical tips and general strategies that I can apply during a doubles match?

Best Regards,

Stefan Arak

Hi Stefan,

We haven't made any doubles videos as yet. It is an idea for us for the future.

We do have a few previous Ask the Coach questions on the topic. Just type in 'Doubles Tactics' into the search box at the top of the Ask the Coach page to see them.

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.
