The grip
Strokes
Winnie Grohmann Asked 9 years ago
Is it a bit late in the day to start to try to use the Shakehands Grip. I have been playing league matches for a number of years and don't hold the bat in any particular way. I thought maybe the Shakehands grip would possibly help me play better shots with the aim of winning more matches.

Hi Winnie,
I would give it a try. Spend a couple of months doing it and then if you feel that it isn't working it will be easy enough to switch back.

Forehand Counterhit
The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:
- Your feet position
- Your start position
- Your finish position
If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
