[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

[@56tof]

Great video! How about a video on how both partners should position themselves on the court when receiving a serve? I noticed in most international tournaments, that the other partner on the receiving team is positioned at the center of the court (not on the opposite box), while the one receiving the actual serve is near the net.

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Thank you for your support and question. Np. I will make a video to explain that. Thank you very much

[@roshini13022012]

Really super

[@yashinshaikx-b4114]

Thx

[@venugopalrao2338]

Thanks @AL Liao!!. What if the service comes over the head, can we still target the same spots?

[@JohnPaul-si8sy]

Can u explain the positions once we do this return? Where can we anticipate opponents return when we push them to their forehand?

[@SJ-ju3np]

Thanks Coach. May I know what racket and tension you are using please?

[@yifanyu1969]

great staff

[@nappingbronco279]

This is simply the most easy to understand video on receiving. You guys can do the explanation part in a good manner. Hope to see more of your content.

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Glad you love the video. We will create more content and coming soon

[@thomasl5710]

Great video. Do you always use forehand to recieve when you are receiving in the left box and backhand when you receive in right box?

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Hey Thomas, not always. Usually I hold bevel grip so it helps me to twist to forehand and backhand faster.

[@megadisc1982]

nice sharing

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

My pleasure all the time

[@elvenpath7]

Hey coach ! Awesome video. Can you please tell how you call the grip that you used for these returns ? It doesn't look like bevel, forehand or backhand grips.

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

from forehand side or backhand side? From forehand side would hold bevel, and backhand side would hold forehand grip. Good question. Thank you for watching

[@kenlee1969]

Thanks for the tips Al. Have not seen you in a long time since the Sunday evening dropins. Keep the vids coming!

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Hi Ken, My pleasure. Thank you for watching. Hopefully you get some tips and improve your games.

[@Yendomo]

Hey coach, what about the flat return straight down the middle? What are the benefits of this shot and when should it be used?

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Good question. The benefit of this shot that will be helping you get the third shot at the front easier and faster as long as the shot is going straight down instead of up. Good question, thank you for bring it out

[@Yendomo]

Thanks for the response coach! I look forward to your future videos. I guess a similar question would relate to your service video where you highlight the 4 corners but didn't mention serving into their body or the shoulder on their racket-side to jam their return. Perhaps in the future you can add these nuances in! Great job.

[@LivethewayYouLike]

Hi, I'm a left hander, when I have to return from the right box, will I use forehand grip to return for spot 1, ,2, 3 and and bevel grip for spot 4, 5, 6? Am I correct?

[@donaldlaw]

Great tips on service return, now if I can stop lifting the birdies. 👍🏻

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Yeah. This 6 spots will helps you be more aggressive in your doubles game

[@TheHw70]

Sigh meee too

[@kasshikaaks8075]

Nice tip

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Thank you very much. Glad to hear that. ^^

[@theforgot3n1]

How often should you hold the opposite grip and hit towards the opposing player's side? How often should you switch it up? Also to answer your question, the middle-area return is probably the best right?

[@harveycreed584]

That's great coach, personally placement 6 is my go to as alot of doubles players stand behind the server and often compensate their backhand by standing closer to position 3.

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Thank you Harvey for comment

[@RamCharan-qb6hk]

Good tutorial, but what do I do, if it goes between fore and backhand and produces an awkward angle 😅

[@akshaykadu8308]

What if opponent serve at backhand.. How can we execute the shot number 4 5 and 6 ??

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

What you can do is to twist to backhand grip and you can return to those spot.

[@akshaykadu8308]

@@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching ok thank you sir

[@Kaellekz]

[@daiweshi1701]

While returning the serve I always thought of dragging my right leg forward

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Yeah. That is fine. As long as you would be able to come back and ready for the next shot. Thank you for sharing

[@dennisang5608]

Not necessary to be same feet and same arm forward for service return?

[@utubertg]

I hv the same question. Looks like you always step your non-racket foot forward when receiving low serve. What is the difference stepping racket vs non-racket foot forward when receiving? Also, is there a difference in our return strategy when opponent serves to different position (left, right, mid) on our service line? Tks.

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Racket foot or non racket foot the difference are racket foot your return could be aggressive but slower back to ready for next shot and non racket foot is more faster to be able to get ready for next shot

[@SauRiengHeo]

it really depends which spot i will hit. Esp i need to know my partner strength n weakness before i make a decision. Also, my opponent weakness..

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Thank you for sharing Eugene ^^

[@azhimahmad5652]

that's subjective...he teaches the basic stuff which most of the regular player will hit...I use the same technique too just to be safe..

How to return short service when you are in the middle of the court ?

[@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching]

Observe your opponent serve motion and catch the timing Then back foot needs to push forward reach your racket forward with your racket head up and connect with the shuttle by using your finger Hope that helps. Let me know if you have more question

[@abhijeetswain5424]

@@ALLiaoBadmintonCoaching thank you sir. Can i use this in doubles also ?

[@vedantkhare5535]

Wait what, u r stepping out of the box to return serve... And my friends say that u can't go out of the box from front area to return serve...... Pls tell 🤔

[@alfred8217]

The server and receiver must start in their own box before the serve. After the server’s racket contacts the shuttle and the shuttle is in the air, players can move and go anywhere. In the video, the receiver only moved immediately after the server’s hit, which is completely legal (and what I’m trying to learn).
