Deciding who plays the middle ball at the back.

PadelJo
🏆 #1 Takeaway - How do players decide who takes the ball in the middle at the back of the court?
Decide based on previous shot, ball angle/finish point, player positioning, and clear communication, using defensive shots like Chiquita or Lob.

What Your Guru Thinks

This explanation by the coach Sandy is really helpful for sorting out a common confusion on court. It covers how players at different levels should decide who takes the ball in the middle when they are at the back. He goes into practical considerations like your position and the angle of the ball, and stresses the importance of clear communication with your partner. This understanding can really smooth out your back court game.
