Simple cross-court net shots
The basic cross-court net technique does not use any deception. This provides the best accuracy, and helps you take the shuttle as early as possible.
Deceptive cross-court net shots
For deceptive cross-court net, use the same preparation as a straight net shot. At the last moment, change the angle.
“Strict” cross-net deception
How strict should you be with your cross-net deception? What is the right balance between deception and shot quality?
Pairing cross-net with spin
Try practising cross-court net shots together with in-to-out spin. This can help you find a good balance between deception and shot quality.
Angled net shots, and deception
When the shuttle is near the middle of the net, we can play an angled net shot to either side. The deceptive versions are quite tricky.
