Serving is one of the important means of scoring in badminton. Forehand serving while addressing the net means that the racket is held with the forehand and the shuttlecock is hit with the head on the front face to allow the shuttlecock to lightly graze the net and fall near the opponent’s service line. Its low flight curve and short distance can effectively limit the opponent's direct and powerful counterattack. This is common in singles matches.
Technique
1. First, hold the lower part of the cork base with the thumb, index finger, and middle finger of your left hand.
2. Extend the left arm slightly; don't straighten it excessively.
3. Hold the racket with the right hand and your wrist facing up.
4. When swinging, you should use a smaller forward swinging arc of your right forearm and a smaller forward extension arc at the wrist.
5. When the racket surface hits the shuttlecock, the racket surface hits the cork base from the back right to the front left.
6. When moving with the racket, be careful not to hold the racket close to the upper left of the body, but instead use it as a brake when the racket surface touches the cork base, and then quickly return it to your chest.
