How to train in backhand
Strokes
Anand Krishnakumar Asked 12 years ago
Hey Coach,
I lose almost all my matches due to my lack of ability to play proper and good backhand strokes.
Could you please suggest how to increase my backhand ability?

Take a look through our lessons on the Strokes & Techniques page. You will find a few Backhand related lessons there that you can watch and try to copy. Then get out onto the table as much as you can and practice these strokes.
