Badminton Beginners Lesson #5 - Backhand Serve ( low & flick )

Badminton Beginners Lesson #5 - Backhand Serve ( low & flick )

A serve is the starting point of every badminton rally to begin the games. The backhand serve is mainly used in doubles, but nowadays, most singles players often use the backhand serve  to gain the attack immediately. It is beneficial for both singles and doubles player.

In general, there are 2 types of backhand serve in badminton. There are many different variety of this serve with different purposes, but In this video i will explain more about the basic backhand serve.

1. Backhand low serve
Backhand low serve is to hit the shuttle from one service box to opposite diagonal service box, the shuttle must travel slightly above the net, and landed near the opponent short service box. (show slow motion backhand low serve)

Mostly used is doubles games, but a lot of singles players also using this backhand low serve. With a good quality of serve, it will give you the advantage to be aggressive,  to gain the attack immediately. But a poor serve may force you (if you are playing singles, and your partner if you are playing doubles or mixed doubles) to defend right away.

2. Backhand Flick Serve
Backhand flick serve is to hit the shuttle from one service box to opposite diagonal service box, the shuttle must travel fast and deep about 45 degree angle into the back court, and landed at the back near doubles long service line.

This serve can be used both for singles or doubles, the whole idea of using this flick serve is to deceive your opponent, by applying same motion as a low serve, let your opponent assume you will be doing a low serve, and the moment the opponent react, or the moment you about to make a contact with the shuttle, change the pace or to flick serve.

a good quality of backhand flick serve, will give you the advantage to be aggressive,  to gain the attack immediately. But a poor serve may force you (if you are playing singles, and your partner if you are playing doubles or mixed doubles) to defend right away.
