One easy badminton scheme often used in singles is to serve long and
high to your opponent's back court. This will force your adversary to
move back to the baseline and open up his forecourt.
hurl in some disguised reduced assist rarely and you might just catch your opponent off guard and win a issue outright.
Nowadays
in professional men's records, you seldom see them use the long assist.
This is because the expert players are exceedingly athletic and possess
large techniques. They can leap really high and shatter powerfully even
from the baseline.
It all counts who you are playing with. If
the high serve turns out to be your opponent's very popular and put you
under force, use the low assist.
Always try to strike the shuttle
away from your opponent and make your adversary move round the court.
One exception to this direct is that when you meet a tall opponent, you
might want to shatter directly to his body to gain an benefit.
Observe your opponent's power, weakness, very popular shots and pattern of play. Use it to your benefit.
Your
aim is to make your adversary play a feeble come back, such as a feeble
backhand shot from the back court. If your plan works and forces a
error or a poor come back which you can make a 'kill', use it again. If
it is not working then have the courage to make alterations. The key is
to be flexible.
If you are in a tough position in the game and
your opponent is not, you need to make time for yourself to get back to a
favorable place. Do this by hitting the shuttle high towards the back
of the court, preferably beside the middle of the baseline. Your
opponent will find it tough to catch you out with acute angled returns
from there.
Remember habitually to get back to your groundwork
position in the midcourt locality after making each shot. This is a
place where you can possibly reach any of your opponent's shots.
