Backhand clears intro
Backhand clears are a difficult shot to master; but if you keep working on the technique, you can get there.

Backhand clears: stop or follow through?
When you hit a backhand clear, should you stop or follow through? Maybe the answer is not as simple as you think!

Even very small changes in timing and distance can make a big difference to your power.
