Squires, Richard C.

"Squash Tennis"

Don't aimlessly just put the ball in play.
A careless server loses many points by allowing his opponent to make an
offensive return. A deliberate, concentrating, purposeful player, on the
other hand, will actually win many important points with well placed
serves.

SHOT-MAKING

Most uninitiates, especially Squash Racquets players who are adroit at
and/or addicted to that game, believe Squash Tennis offers nothing but
prolonged "slam bang" rallies and a boring "sameness." Because of the
tremendous liveliness of the ball and the apparent absence of deftly
placed straight "drops" that die in a corner, these potential players
scorn and speak disparagingly of the wonderful game of Squash Tennis
which, like all racquet games, has its own shots and ways of putting the
ball away.
It is very true that overwhelming power is a key to hitting winning
shots, but this is also true of Lawn Tennis. Employing the so-called
"Big Game of Tennis" is an absolute must if a circuit player today is
going to be a winner. No longer do you see any classic baseline duels
where the premium is on guile and steadiness.
