| Low Ball | Scoop & Slide | Chest to ball, don't bend back! | Ngực xuống bóng, đừng cúi lưng! |
| Return | Block & Redirect | No swing, use their pace! | Không vung, dùng lực đối thủ! |
| Approach | Slice Low, Advance | Cut deep, split-step, move! | Cắt sâu, split-step, tiến lên! |
| Defense | Get it Deep! | Buy time, don't aim for lines! | Mua thời gian, đừng nhắm sát biên! |
⚠️ 50+ Safety Checklist¶
- Protect the Back (Bảo vệ lưng): Always bend knees for low balls, never bend your back.
- Protect the Shoulder (Bảo vệ vai): If shoulder feels tight, use 2HB for power and slice for everything else.
- Control the Lunge (Kiểm soát bước): Use small, controlled steps. Avoid sudden lunging which strains knees.
- Soft Grip (Grip lỏng): Tension = injury. Relax your hand to "absorb" the ball's power.
