In this video you are going to learn how to intercept the shuttle overarm.
This drill allows you to get the feel of the racket for the first time, develop a good sense of judgement and have the correct posture.
Each player stand with a shuttle and a racket on the opposite sides of the net behind the service box line.
Player 1 places the racket on the ground and catches the shuttle thrown by player 2.
Player 1 has two shuttles.
Player 1 throws the shuttle across the net.
Player 2 steps forward and taps the shuttle gently over the net.
Once both shuttles are hit, player 1 picks them up and throws them again.
Players change roles and repeat the drill.
Once the players get the feel of the racket and the shuttle, add a downward flick of the wrist to the tap.
Practice throwing and hitting the shuttle for 10 minutes.
It will help you develop a feel of the racket, understand the arm movement, develop a good sense of judgement.
Enjoy your game .
