Strokes
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.

Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
