Attack: Where can you smash from most easily? What kind of shot are you looking for from your opponent? space, power,
analyses of opposition player. use shot selection to move the opponent around the court and catch them off guard. The aim is for
their return shot to have no power and little accuracy
The Block - The block shot is generally used in defence against an opponent’s smash, but if a player is up at the net it
may also be used against a drive shot and can become an attacking shot (Teach PE, 2018)
The push – Relay on shoulder movements to and torso transfer to push the oncoming shuttle
The drive - It is important to use the wrist for primary power, as a full return stroke is more likely to push the shuttlecock
out of bounds (Master Badminton, 2015)
