Master the Basics of Grip and Stance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Use the <strong>forehand grip<\/strong> for high serves and the <strong>backhand grip<\/strong> for low, fast, or flick serves.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, non-racket foot forward, and keep your body relaxed for better control.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">???? <strong>2. Perfect Your Technique<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Low Serve (Doubles Focus):<\/strong> Keep the shuttle just above net height with minimal lift, forcing your opponent into a weak return.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>High Serve (Singles Focus):<\/strong> Aim for maximum height and distance to push opponents to the backcourt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flick Serve:<\/strong> Disguise it as a low serve, then add a quick wrist snap to surprise opponents.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u23f1 <strong>3.
