Squash 2 Player Drills: Backhand Kill Shots

Video Transcript

"Ok, in this drill Gary's going to hit the backhand kill shot; I'm going to give him a feed, a ball a couple feet away from the wall and he's going to use his backhand and try to hit the ball into the net for a kill. This is a really good shot to end points with and it's good for me as the feeder because I get to try to dig the ball out of the net. So it's good practice for both players. So let's see how we do, ok and that ones a little close to the wall; that one was a little close too, good shot; there we go, there we go. So you can see Gary gets away from the ball, that was a tough feed; good. He gets away from the ball which gives him a good angle with which to hit the ball. So right there, it's a tough shot; that was good, that's it that one was right into the net and there's nothing I could do; it jumped out at me. So racket; he gets the racket ready. That's a very tight ball; good shot ok, so right now we're getting in a good rhythm. So that's a pretty good shot in which to practice because a lot of times you get a loose ball and if you can't finish the point, the point can go on for many more shots and you can get tired. So it's a good shot to be able to finish off your opponent with."
