Net Shot Touch

What you will learn

Guide a soft shot just over the net. This TRAINOVIX lesson shows a simple setup, a specific practice action and a way to notice your progress without rushing.

Practice step by step

1. Check that the court is clear and others are outside racket range.
2. Start close to the net with gentle feeds.
3. Keep a relaxed grip and use a small racket motion to lift the shuttle over the tape.
4. Notice the difference between soft touch and a long swing.
5. Practise a few gentle feeds and take a break before rushing.

Coaching tips

• Accuracy improves with calm practice.
• Keep movements small and be aware of nearby rackets.

How to progress

Start with the simplest version of the activity. Give yourself enough time to learn the movement, ask for feedback when useful, and choose a more challenging variation only when your practice feels comfortable and controlled.
