How To Properly Grip A Squash Racket

The squash grip! In this video I explain the correct way to hold a racket and why.
Using the correct grip will allow you to hit the ball harder, with more accuracy and less chance of injury than if you used a "beginner" grip.
I explain how the correct grip will help you get the ball out of the back corners, which for many new players is a difficult skill to learn.
I am sorry but the sound in this video varies a little bit. It is clear but the volume level varies.
