net volley

The Eastern forehand grip can be called the "universal grip".

With this grip, the racquet face can hit the ball with topspin by rubbing against the back of the ball, and it can also hit flat shots with great power and penetration.At the same time, the Eastern grip is easy to switch to other grips. Therefore, for a player like Shen Ruoan who likes to surf the Internet, the Eastern grip is also a good choice. Due to his habit, he also switched to the Eastern grip.

Generally speaking, whether it is in singles or doubles, the first serve emphasizes the speed and attack power of the ball. This opponent in the third grade who has the advantage of height and strength made a strong serve as soon as he came up.

There are not many players who have entered the state at the beginning. Shen Ruo'an is not a slow-fire opponent. He spotted the opponent's serve and it was a diagonal kick. He slid a step to the left. The beautiful side slid made the audience Feeling the magnificence and elegance of tennis, the opponent thought his serve was very impactful, and thought that Shen Ruoan would drop the ball that he barely caught back to the net. The opponent who was rushing to the net stopped abruptly in the middle, and Shen Ruoan's right hand did not look like it. As if using force, the backhand easily returns the opponent's serve to the opponent's backcourt.

The opponent's first point was easily scored by Shen Ruo'an.

Using flamboyance to defuse the opponent's heavy hits is not a technique that ordinary middle school students can do. The bald man who stood with his arms folded on the sidelines touched his bald head with his hands, and his whole body was inexplicably excited. Did he dig it? Is it treasure?

There was loud applause from the auditorium. The three high school students from Xinming Middle School saw Shen Ruoan playing for the first time. They felt incredible. The gorgeous movements are not necessarily false...

But only one goal, they may be too early to draw conclusions.

Hou Pei thought to himself: Shen Ruo'an really has strength.

He Yu stared calmly at Shen Ruo'an's face with a calm expression: How much strength is hidden under this calm face, I believe Cheng Yupeng's younger brother will not be far behind, and I am looking forward to it.

Lian Xueyu didn't have much idea, he knew Shen Ruo'an far less than the first two, he just thought it was pretty good.

Some classmates who watched Shen Ruoan play for the first time all had innocent smiles on their faces at this time. The innocence that really belongs to the children, it turns out that Shen Ruoan, who is unknown in their class, is so strong, and they should not underestimate their classmates. classmate.

Shen Ruo'an himself only focused on the field, paying attention to the movement of the opponent's gestures.

The opponent observed that Shen Ruo'an had stood up and was about to serve. The strength of the first serve made the opponent successfully counterattack. He couldn't be careless. That Shen Ruo'an didn't look so easy to deal with.

Toss the ball again, serve!

The muscles on the opponent's arm are definitely more developed than Shen Ruo'an's. With the increase in strength, Shen Ruo'an's position is slightly behind, and the next serve is expected and unexpected.

The increased weight is expected, at least how much force is added is unexpected.

In this return, Shen Ruoan did not use the gorgeous footwork just now. The opponent served the ball in the center of the effective area this time. It is not difficult for an opponent who is no worse than Cheng Youpeng to serve such a ball, but here Shen Ruo'an, who had previously experienced a more difficult serve than this, would not be afraid of missing the hit, but he didn't predict the strength of the opponent. He believed that he could hit the ball back.

Faced with a strong serve, Shen Ruoan couldn't use the stringer ball. He hadn't adapted to the strength of the opponent's serve yet. He was not in a hurry. Although the return of the ball seemed to be reluctant, the height of the ball was also very high. On the opponent's baseline, it's a lob.

It seems to return the ball reluctantly, but it is actually a thoughtful return, is it reluctant?

No.

Since the opponent has strength, he must return the ball skillfully. Returning the ball is also a brain job, which is what is usually called flexibility.

With Shen Ruo'an's first experience of spotting his own backcourt counterattack, the third-year junior player did not go to the net this time. Shen Ruo'an, who was ready to catch the ball to buy time for himself, did not fall into the predicament of the opponent's strong serve , the more challenging the serve, the easier it is to arouse his passion for tennis.

The opponent hit Shen Ruoan's lob from the bottom line back to him, and it was also a bottom line ball. He didn't dare to go to the net rashly, and at the same time, he didn't intend to let Shen Ruoan go to the net.

As for whether Shen Ruo'an wants to go to the net, it is not up to the other party to decide.

Shen Ruo'an backhanded the ball back to the opponent's court. The two went back and forth on the ball for two rounds. Finally, the opponent returned a deep and heavy baseline ball. Shen Ruo'an returned the ball out of bounds, allowing the opponent to score.

Everyone knew that Shen Ruo'an should win this point, but why?

As long as he runs to the upper right corner and speeds up a little bit, he can return the forehand and handle the ball well.

But it was only the second goal, and everyone didn't seem to think so much.

And the reason why Shen Ruo'an made a mistake in the one just now was because at that moment a scene flashed in his mind that made him regret for the rest of his life...

It was a field game when he was 17 years old.

He is very eager to win that game, no matter what the ball is, he will try his best to catch it, even if he falls on the field, he still wants to save the ball and return to the opponent's field, he just wants to get that time The men's singles championship, the one he needed the most, he needed the prize money from that championship, and he wanted to use it to treat his mother who was seriously ill and bedridden.

Unfortunately, in the end, it still failed to do so...

In order to return those balls, just like the one that came back to him just now, he was desperate at that time. Similar scenes and similar returns flashed in front of him again. He hesitated and paused his hands. Just put the ball back out of bounds.

How could he think of those things in the past when his whole body was excited?

Yes, his life was reborn, he had a new life, a new beginning.

He should have worked hard for his wish, but at that moment just now, he was deterred.

He is not afraid of failure, he is not afraid of losing, what he is afraid of is injury.

Injury does not mean that it will be cured after simple treatment. Sometimes, if you are not careful or not paying attention, it will become a serious illness in the future, which is difficult to treat and you will no longer be able to play.

This is the only burden, the only scruple, the only fear, and the only obstacle that Shen Ruoan has to stand on the tennis court again after regaining a new life.

The scene that suddenly flashed affected Shen Ruo'an who was in a state of excitement at that moment.

His high fighting spirit suddenly dropped by half.

The opponent's balls are relatively heavy, and the landing points are all outside his defensive range. If he wants to catch the ball, he must run and move.

He had to sweep away the inexplicable irritating and disturbing fear in his heart.

However, this is a heart disease that has troubled him for many years. How can it be removed in a short time? Is it really difficult to erase it?

Facing a menacing and powerful opponent, Shen Ruo'an was not afraid of him, but the hurdle he was sad about. How could he think of that incident at this time!

A round is over.

The opponent kept his serve.

Shen Ruo'an, who was emotionally fluctuating, returned a little absent-mindedly in the next few shots, but this was not seen in the eyes of other people from different angles. Even his opponent thought that Shen Ruo'an just kept his serve just by fluke.

Now that he has won his serve so easily, it seems that this sophomore junior who is known as the "dark horse" is just making a fuss to scare people, which is not the case.

In men's singles, the rest period is generally after the third set.

The third game was Shen Ruoan's serve.

In this serve, he still kept his serve, but due to psychological changes, he was almost broken in the last few minutes of the game, and barely kept his serve.

At the end of the third game, they had a 5-minute break.

In regular competitions, the rest time is usually five to 10 minutes, but now it is just a school competition, the rules of the competition are looser, and the school also aims to strengthen the physical fitness of the students. encouragement.

The tennis of Huakun Middle School has not developed much in recent years. This is probably related to the nature of the school. Huakun Middle School has always been a school that emphasizes academics and sports as a supplement.

Shen Ruo'an, who was resting after the game, didn't say a word, his expression was more serious and dignified than usual.

After taking two sips of the water that He Yu handed over, he took out a towel from his backpack and covered his head, sat aside, bowed his head and did not speak.

The three of He Yu don't know what's going on, how can someone be unhappy after winning the game, but everyone's performance in the game will be different from usual.

Shen Ruo'an's head, which was pressing the towel, was suddenly rubbed gently by a pair of big hands, the sweat from the hair and forehead was sucked away by the towel, and the towel was also removed at the same time, the light returned to the eyes of Shen Ruo'an who was bowing his head and thinking , His forehead was touched by a cold object.

He looked up.

Cheng Youpeng was shaking Wangzai milk in front of him, and then his head was tapped lightly by his hand, Shen Ruoan pouted slightly dissatisfied, this subtle movement was only seen by Cheng Youpeng.

"Little braid is thinking about something. If you want to play, you have to let go of your hands and feet. The consequence of thinking wildly is losing the game, and your playing style will become disorganized and messy."

Shen Ruo'an suddenly grabbed the Wangzai milk in his hand, held it in front of his eyes, stared at the doll on the jar, moved his lips and said, "You were not there just now."

There was some complaint in his tone, but he didn't know it himself. Recently, he has become used to Cheng Youpeng watching from the sidelines.

Cheng Youpeng wiped the sweat on the back of Shen Ruoan's braided neck with a towel, and said, "I can't concentrate on playing."

The other three didn't intervene when they saw the brothers talking. They could only encourage the players in the competition but not stimulate them. They are all athletes, and this reason is very clear.

Shen Ruo'an let Cheng Yupeng wipe the sweat on the back of his neck, then put the cold Wangzai milk can against his left cheek and turned to look at him seriously, asking, "Are you afraid of getting hurt when you play?"

Cool, really comfortable, this is what Shen Ruoan thinks now.

Cheng Youpeng took back the towel, blinked his eyes, lowered his head and said in Shen Ruo'an's ear, "I'm an elder brother, you don't have to be afraid of getting hurt if I'm here."

Come to think of it, my brother is struggling with this problem?

Shen Ruo'an, who heard Cheng Youpeng's gentle and deep voice for the first time, put the Wangzai milk jar directly on top of his head.

She glanced at him and said, "You're just bored."

Who is afraid of getting hurt.

Shen Ruoan, who played again, had some subtle changes in his eyes.

Ridiculous.

How could he be afraid of getting hurt...

In the past, he didn't deal with the injury properly, but now he will allow such a thing to happen?

The answer is: no.

The other three were curious about what Cheng Youpeng said in Shen Ruoan's ear just now.

After Shen Ruo'an picked up the racket and stood up and walked away, Cheng Youpeng tossed the Wangzai milk that was placed on top of his head by his younger brother and played with it, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

The next game...

In the end, Shen Ruo'an scored 6:4 in the first game and 6:3 in the second game.

"Shen Ruo'an entered the finals of the junior high school."

The referee's words lingered in the ears of the students in the second grade (5) class.

Fifteen minutes later, good news came from another venue, and Jiang Han also entered the final.

That is to say...

Shen Ruoan's next opponent is Jiang Han?

The final will be scheduled for tomorrow (Saturday) at [-]:[-] pm.

After the game, Shen Ruo'an and Cheng Youpeng got on the bus to go home.

In the quiet car, the sound of the station announcement from the machine echoed. A certain younger brother was tired and slept soundly on his elder brother's shoulder, holding a Wangzai milk can with a doll's big smiling face in his hand. Looking out of the window where the shadows of the trees flashed overhead...

Taking care of my younger brother is not easy either.
