Hi Benjamin,

You are allowed to have two fingers on the back of the bat but you will find it will restrict your wrist movement.  It will be an easy transition to just use one finger. You just need to practice with this grip for a few weeks.

  1. Foot Position: Ensuring a stable and balanced stance to facilitate quick movements.​ 
  2. Start Position: Positioning your racket and body correctly to initiate the stroke effectively.​ 
  3. Finish Position: Completing the stroke in a way that prepares you for the next shot.​ 

Additionally, we discuss how to adjust your bat angle if the ball goes long, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the same start and finish positions without coming across your body.​
