Advanced Racquetball: Secrets of the Pros - Crossover Drill featuring Coach Jim Winterton

 

Engaging in sporting activities and competitions is one of the most common methods used. With this in mind let s flip the pages of one of the most fast-paced game in the planet, racquetball. Joe Sobek is the man behind the birth of racquetball whose initial name was actually paddle rackets. He was said to be both a professional tennis player and handball player. They should be limp and loose. Don t force using more of your muscles if you are not hitting the ball hard enough. Instead, analyze your swing and check where the kinetic link lost its power and did not reach your arms and wrists. You should not be unbalanced after your swing. If this happens, g back and review your sequence of moves. The WPRO or Women s Professional Racquetball Organization handles the affairs of female professional players while the CPRT or Classic Pro Racquetball Tour overlooks the activities of 40 years and above who embraced the sport at a young age. The 70s marked the entry of official and organized competitive racquetball. For beginners, this can be a source of great frustration that can drive one away from the game altogether. An important point is having the proper grip size on your racquet a inch or so of space between fingers and palm. This happens quite often to women who are sold racquets with grips too large for their hands. Play the angle in hitting the front wall so that the returning ball will be deep in a corner. If your opponent can hit it, he might be in an awkward place at the back corner and will have trouble in the next shot. Again, returning the shots is tricky by themselves. Placing the ball where you want it needs practice. Do not hit the ball too close to the side wall, either. It pops out and can give your opponent a great set up. Cross court pass shot Another good offensive shot is the cross court pass shot. Hit the front wall about 1 to 2 feet above the floor and about 4 feet from either side wall. The ball returns exactly to the other side of the back corner.
