Strokes

Hi coach, before I had problem with backhand loop, but I could work it out for 7 out of 10 with high speed and spin. The problem is that I tend to miss the next stroke to my forehand after looping.

Any suggestions that would help???

Hi LeangHeng,

Perhaps you need to work on your balance during the backhand topspin so that you are ready for the next ball.

Balance is a really big key to playing.  A lot of errors occur due to lack of balance.

Hi Coach, how can we have good balance after stroke???

Or is it because I raise my backhand up too high so no time to come back??? But the ball just coming back fast after my opponent blocking my backhand loop.
