🏆 #1 Takeaway - How to improve defensive backhand and volley technique?
Focus on low preparation for backhand defense, transfer weight forward, keep volley preparation short, maintain pala in peripheral vision, and cut through the ball for control and depth.

What Your Guru Thinks

This is useful if you're trying to figure out which side of the court suits your game best or if you struggle with your backhand and volley. The coaches provide detailed feedback on common errors and offer specific techniques to help correct them. Focusing on these fundamentals, especially pala preparation and contact point, can make a big difference.
