Squash analysis - Spacing for power and options

If the ball is in the right spot in relation to your body you get power and shot options which also allows you to control the rallies.
There are several ways to get the right spacing firstly with your movement from the T then your last stride to the ball and then you adjust your positioning with upper body movement just before striking, if this is minimal you will access the power required.
As you become more advanced you can and sometimes choose to transition weight as you hit but if you get this wrong it can leave you off balance when you hit.

Love it. We ask the kids to find their hit distance by bouncing the ball on their racket from close to far from their body to find where it feels comfortable. The half volley drop in the second half of the video is such a great shot to play. It really can make the difference between making it a winner or not. Thanks for the videos!

Thanks for sharing what works for you, it may help others. I am trying to add content for all standard players but skills like the half volley drop are awesome for any standard player.
