How to hit a squash ball

[deepbend2]

Incorrect grip, racket head held too low ,bad footwork, too upright, too square to the front wall, terrible follow through, it is obvious he has no control of the ball the way he is having to chase round to hit the ball on a simple forehand drive drill.

This sort of video should not be allowed. Please folks forget about Tubby McBeerguts video and get some real coaching.

[jonathanalechope]

For the sake of Squash, YouTube should remove this video. Everything about it is wretched.

[luanveto]

he's just terrible..this video sucks...

[dvdsmlprstylr]

thing is, behind a keyboard and screen, people are quick to judge and they get too smart.

i reckon this dude is pretty good at squash (not based on this video).

[Crazyboynic]

Firstly, you are American. Now this is bad. Secondly, it sounds as though you have never done 1 bit of fitness in your entire life. That's worse. Thirdly, you couldn't play squash to save your fucking life.

Now, why the fuck did you put up a video like this to show people how to play squash if u can't even play it urself?

I am a South African and I play squash like u should, with flare and style. I give most u/19 players a gud game if not beating them and I am 14. 2 words u douche-bag: FUCK OFF!

[habit56]

yo you should post a video of how to hit dudes balls around you homo...ps. let me smang that

[FelixRivasO]

Eres mas malo que el cancer....

[GeorgeHasNoAbs]

just go to squashmadeeasy(dot)blogspot(do­t)com/

[14jonny14]

got to be a piss take

[DrCrazyFishMan]

Before posting a video named "How to hit a squash ball" you would think he would know himself how to hit a squash ball!

[sircharlesgraham]

rubbish

[sergeibell]

I couldn´t post yesterday but I came back to tell you that you really suck at squash¡¡

[JackFowlerTube]

Your awful my dad could beat you and i beat him when i was 12 lololol

[1234purplerock]

iv'e only played squash 3 times (40 mins a time) and i'm better than him lol at the same court as he was in.

[godlyelf]

stop being mean lol

[Court9Squash]

Love the clatter of the racket off the back wall

[buzzholden]

haha, he's actually awful. usually in these tutor videos, they play a few shots to the camera as an example of how qualified they are to give tips. but that was quite shit

[darklordofthepith]

Kelly, if you want to see a good forehand watch Sarah Fitzgerald, former Aust. world no. 1. There's some youtube vids of her playing Nicol David in an exhibition match.

[scrumpymanjack]

This is a joke, surely? I'm about to watch the video entitled "Borat at squash centre", and I'm betting it's going to be more instructive than this one.

[marcus2706]

LOL

[Amnuaym]

Ha ha ha lots of people give my comments already. Anyway you are cool MAN!

[boofted]

I hope this was a piss take. My six year old son has a better technique than that.

[swalden12345]

Oh and btw thats a racquet ball racquet

[the69ryin]

@swalden12345 um bro . . . ? how is that a racquet ball racquet, are you retarded?

[swalden12345]

@the69ryin its either that or a 10 dollar racquet

[swalden12345]

America = bottom country at squash lol

[Russdacheezburger]

I'm 13 and I hit the ball better than you.

[apwright76]

Unbelievable, judging by your comment responces this is not a joke video. You have taught yourself to hit a sqash ball and your inflated ego has told you to "now teach others your incredible skills". Still not sure if this is sad or amusing.

[JJ440]

Hahaha, wussy boy...., nugget breath....., are you kidding me? I'm not even going to start on the video. You're cracking me up man!

You are totally confirming the American stereotype, very embarassing.

Not trieing to put you down or something, as long as you enjoy the game. Internet is just harsh i guess.

[peshayuk]

this looks like a first timer on the court!!

you are giving the game a bad name posing as a good player and trying to show others how to play!!!

please, never do this again.

[jelementality]

your forehand technique is terrible, 1st off it's more like a bad tennis shot 2nd you realy should not be giving people instructions as you cant even hold practicing the forehand on your own, your 3rd shot was OUT and your 4th and last shot looked like a pathetic atttempt at a drop shot above the tin.

[vikramjain79]

You are so right! Horrible technique this guy has.

[samuraizulu]

your forehand technique is terrible! why do you turn over your wrist? this isn't tennis...

[jdcontrol]

first he needs to go on a diet, then he might be able to move around the court.

[KellyRayMulholland]

Let's play wussy boy.

[Kilmarnocky]

C'mon guys ... give him a break. Make sure its a long one ... for some serious practice! Isn't the net wonderful?

[paChonn]

piece of crap ¬¬

[KellyRayMulholland]

you must be an expert, I'm always interested in a lesson.

[sarantakis]

You are probably a terrific and very talented person KellyRayMulholland . Unfortunatley squash isn't one of your talents. If you have any doubts about it, call me if you are ever in Athens, Greece.

[zuzuanddee]

honestly, get a life and learn to how play before teaching others.

[KellyRayMulholland]

what makes you think I was teaching ??

[talha099]

this man first needs to learn himself

[chris196205]

Ever heard of racquet preparation? No? How about footwork? How about leaving teaching to someone who knows how?

[KellyRayMulholland]

good point. too bad i wasn't teaching. How would you know that if you didn't ask but rather assume you knew.

[Politack]

He was probably once a good squash player, and old age has affected his ability to actually 'hit' the ball well.

I think he has already peaked, and is slowly decreasing in skill.

[ferrariboi98]

my dad is 50 and he plays squash at a pro level age doesnt mean anything

[nissanguy123]

LoL :P

[ap191919]

I'm giving him him the benefit of the doubt. The video just says "how to hit a squash ball", and I suppose Tubby McBeergut here does show us how to hit it. He just doesn't show us how to hit it correctly or in a way that will give a snowball's chance of beating any halfway decent opponent.

Keep trying. Get some lessons. Practice. You'll get there eventually. But take it slowly... you sound like you're about to have a heart attack in this video!!

[KellyRayMulholland]

I appreciate your kindness

[jonathonpower6666]

jejeej is this some kind of joke... mmm maybe german humor'?? i really dont get it

[fiskadoro]

Ouch. So wrong. People, please don't hit a ball on the squash court like this!

[mefenho]

lol dude you're shit...

Sorry, but you can't teach what you do. Thats a crime.

Someone might injury their wrist doing that grip and hitting the ball like that.

[russg84]

your shit. nuff said

[KellyRayMulholland]

Bring it nugget breath

[yp078]

I assume he is taking the piss, as when I was 8 years old I learnt how to hit a squash ball better than him, and infact my 12 year old cousin is much more efficient with her stroke play, and I really mean that!

[nanni411]

euheuheuh it s so funny :-) thank you mate , i am happy while watching you hahaha ,

[dmihovilovic]

This guy has not idea what he is talking about. It's incredibly he has the guts to record this garbage..

[floyd666uk]

he must be taking the piss surely?  he's terrible.

[KellyRayMulholland]

we could always play and find out

[Zimithral]

Jeez... he's doing the opposite of what 5quashmad is suggesting:

1) he doesn't stay still while hitting

2) he flicks his wrist when he hits the ball

3)about the corner... i can't tell

Btw... one of the worst player ever seen :P

[gammonranger]

ahh, its funny how shit he is and has no idea what he is talking about or doing!

[nanni411]

you are wrong mate , this guy is perfect player ,i ever seen amazing squash player , after wathing him, i am playing excelent now . brilliant record , hahahaha :-)

[Elixertje]

omg, just by the way he holds his racket you could tell a 8 year old could beat him

[57hockey57]

is that the orc??

[jakkyman]

no its no orc !!.....

its a goblin =D

[5quashmad]

1) stand still when ur hittin the ball..

2) dnt flick ur wrist when u hit it..

3) hit more into the corner of the court so it will be not be loose and ur opponent just volleys it and ur never goin to get it..

little advice for u :) stick at it..

[Ruferts]

umm.. why do we not flick our wrist? does it injure it?

[5quashmad]

flick the ball and ull get tennis elbow..

also the ball doesnt go were u want :(

lmao watchin that agen is funny.. he sucks!!

[kelsearae23]

you have a huge fan base dad. =)way to join the computer world.

[X3k5]

lol

[ultzisakhain]

I think the video should actually be named "How NOT to hit a squash ball".
