Squash Crosscourt Drive: Width with Margin
Play a crosscourt drive with enough height and width to move an opponent without opening the court unnecessarily. This is a controlled length shot, not a winner attempt.
Set up
Place a target lane on the opposite side wall beyond the service box. Feed from the back corners.
Home practice
Hit 50 crosscourts from each side, counting only balls that land beyond the service box with a safe margin.
Key cues
Open the face for height.
Aim well inside the side wall.
Recover towards the T after the shot.
Progressions
Static feed; movement feed; then alternate straight and crosscourt on a coach call.
