Training Tips
The most important concept in squash it to keep it straight and keep it tight! If you watch the pros play, 90% of their game is just exchanging these tight straight drives, volleys and straight drops. Why? Because the tight straight shot is the safest shot to play in squash. It is the only shot that can not be attacked.
Your hope is for the opponent to return it loosely so that the court will open up, allowing you to play a variety of shots that put your opponent under pressure. Either you will force a mistake from them or they will finally put up an extreamly loose ball that you can kill or put away.
So keeping this in mind, the most beneficial drills are simply the straight drive, straight volley and straight drop.
