Volley Volley
steals time from opponent. He makes his stroke, he likes to go to good
position, get set, watch to see what you do. If you run to catch that
ball after bounce, maybe he has 2-3 seconds. Nice for him. But you move
quick to volley, you think quick where to put that ball, opponent has
shock. You steal his time. He does not worry what he does to you,
he worries does he reach ball before second bounce. You put pressure on
him (83).
Service
Some squash players, plenty of experience and no
excuse, have wrong idea about serve. They think it is not important,
just signal to begin, like bell in boxing match. Not so! Service in
squash racquets is not like a bell. It is like first punch… maybe K.O.!

Hitting the lob
Swing body to make smooth your stroke, start weight on
right foot. Lob is nice, soft stroke (88).
Stay out of the way
All the time watch close to be not hit, quick move
after you play to give opponent clear shot. This is good sports (135).
Good players, amateur, professional, they have back
stroke, they have follow through. They need some room. Quite proper. I
give that room (136).
