cross court rally

JANANESE

 

Are you worried that you are not good at cross court rallying in doubles games?

 

Or maybe you aren’t volleyed in a practice match, but for some reason you are worried about the front player and you can’t hit cross court shot?

 

In doubles, it is basic to hit a cross court shot.

 

If you’re not good at cross court rallies, it’s difficult to win the match,isn’t it.

 

 

But basically, hitting a cross court shot is just hitting straight toward the cross.

 

It is technically the same as hitting to straight.

 

So why can’t we do a cross court rally in a match?

The reason why the cross court rally doesn’t work well may be because you look at the front player.

 

Hitting a tennis ball is easy to fly in the direction of your line of sight.

 

When you look at the front player, your face also works together and faces straight.

 

Then, your body will open and you will be more likely to swing late.

 

In other words, the moment you see the front player, your body will open and you will swing late, and your hit ball will fly in the direction of the front player.

 

This is why the more you are aware of the front player, the easier it is for your ball to fly straight.

 

In addition, in the match, the opponent’s front player goes out on a poach in an attempt to put pressure on you.

 

A good front player can also move noticeably on purpose.

 

But, the opponent’s front player moves in a way that makes it difficult for you to do a cross court rally.

 

But, the opponent’s front player moves in a way that makes it difficult for you to do a cross court rally.

 

It’s not a wasteful move, it’s inviting him to hit the ball.

 

In other words, you are falling into the strategy of the opponent’s front player.

 

Be careful if there is a obtrusive front player in the match.

 

So how do you hit a stable cross court shot without worrying about the front players in the match?

When you hit the cross court shot, if the hitting point is delayed, the opponent will goes out on the poach.

 

The reason is that when the opponent sees your hitting posture, the opponent knows that an easy ball will come.

 

The posture when you swing late is well understood from the opponent’s point of view.

 

Therefore, it is necessary to take a hitting point in front so that you do not get into such a posture.

 

To that end, it is important to set up as soon as possible.

 

If you set up early, you can take a hitting point in front no matter what ball comes.

 

Often, there are people who pull the racket after bouncing, but after bouncing, it bounces or slips, making it difficult to respond.

 

The more you pull the racket, the less time you have to swing, and the more likely you are to be late.

 

Therefore, in order to stabilize the cross court shot, it is important to set up early and take the hitting point in front.

 

When you hit a cross-court shot, it’s important to step into forward.

 

The reason is that it is easier to control the course by hitting using weight shift.

 

If you do not put your weight on your left foot for the forehand and your right foot for the backhand ”and vice versa for left-handed people”, the hitting point will naturally be delayed and it will be difficult to control the cross.

 

By speeding up the takeback of the racket and stepping into forward to hit, the hitting point will be in front and it will be easier to control the cross court.

When you hit the cross court in a doubles match, you can stop the front player by hitting to straight.

 

You are prepared to hit in the direction of the front player, you get the hitting point in front, and hit to the cross court.

 

If you are ready to hit to straight, your body will be less open and you will not swing late.

 

Also, you are facing the straight, so naturally the opponent’s front player will take care of the straight.

 

Even if the cross course is closer to the center, it will be less likely to be volleyed by the opponent’s front player.

 

If the opponent’s front player still goes out on the poach, you can hit to straight.

 

When you hit to the cross, you hit from the outside of the ball, and when you hit to straight, hit by pushing the center of the ball.

 

If you can hit both straight and cross courts from the same posture, you can be confused the front player rather than annoyed by the front player.

 

However, this way of hitting is based on the premise that you can make a quick stance and you can get a hitting point in front.

 

If you are late in taking a posture and cannot get the hitting point in front, it is effective to hit the cross with a lob.

 

If you hit the lob at a height that the opponent’s front player cannot reach, you can continue the rally for the time being.

 

If you hit lob, you don’t have to worry about your opponent’s front player.

 

If the opponent’s formation is a parallel team, raising the lob to the cross will attack you.

If you can’t hit a cross-court shot in a doubles match, you may have seen your opponent’s front player.

 

When You look at the opponent’s front player, your body opens and you swing late.

 

To continue the cross rally without being aware of the opponent’s front player,

 

• Taking the hitting point in front
• Stepping into forward and hitting
• Face to straight and hit to a cross court

 

These are important.

 

If you open your body, you will be delayed your swing and it will be easier to fly toward the opponent’s front player.

 

• Do not open your body
• Take the hitting point in front

It is important to be aware of these.
