The Good, the bad
& the ugly
The Good:
These
four racquetball strategies are considered good because they are
fundamentally sound and currently in vogue on the IRT and LPRA.
Pass/Pinch Strategy
This is one of
the most basic racquetball strategies to playing high percentage
racquetball. In this strategy, you pass to keep your opponent on the
run and pin them deep and then finish frontcourt setups with pinches.
Pass/Pass Strategy
A close cousin to
the Pass/Pinch strategy, where you utilize the down the line,
crosscourt and wide-angled passes to keep your opponent on the run
from one side wall to the other and pin them deep. This is an
excellent strategy against the slow player who has difficulties with
side movements and limited offensive range.
Physics Strategy
This strategy
utilizes the opponent’s own momentum against them. You hit your return
shot to the last place your opponent just vacated. This strategy is
also popular in tennis: where a tennis player will hit his return shot
behind his opponent, as his opponent is scrambling back to center
court.
The Jam
This strategy should be
placed in the ‘Bad’ category, because it is pretty ‘Bad’ in the good
sense. This simple strategy entails that you keep hitting shots right
at your opponent.
