To become a skilful player, you need to be able to adapt to different situations. For instance, sometimes the shuttlecock will be behind you; but if you can adjust your badminton grip, you will still be able to play a good shot.
- Grip length
- Adjust how high up the handle you hold the badminton racket: long and short grips.
- Late forehand overhead
- Adjust your grip to play an overhead forehand stroke when the shuttlecock has passed behind you.
- Late backhand overhead
- Adjust your grip to play an overhead backhand stroke when the shuttlecock has passed behind you.
- Smash
- Adjust your grip to play a smash when the shuttlecock is somewhat in front of your body. (for advanced players)
