The Sport of Squash - Forehand Ball Control in the Sport of Squash

Watch the squash ball bounce off the front wall. You may be surprised, in this sport, how the ball bounces so little even when you hit it fairly hard. The squash ball is definitely 'squashy' and that's where the sport of squash got its name. To make this drill work well, your follow-through should not be much more than is shown in this picture. Your racquet should simply lift the ball toward the front wall and then stop, so you can pretty quickly begin the backswing for your next shot.
