What is the best way to hold the racket?
The best way to check your grip on the racket is: 1.Hold the racket vertically, with your spare hand around the shaft just below the head. 2.’Shake hands’ with the racket, so that the ‘V between your thumb and forefinger is over the inside edge of the handle. 3, Put your forefinger slightly up the handle so that the knuckle sits up on the outside edge. Wrap the rest of your fingers around the handle. 4. Slide your whole hand down the shaft in that position until you are just above the butt of the handle- 5. Keep a firm but relaxed grip on the racket throughout the stroke.
