BACKHAND
When you hit the tennis ball on your non-dominant side, you are hitting a backhand. You can hit a backhand two ways: with one hand or with two. Early on in your development as a player you have to choose one way or the other. There's also the slice backhand, which is almost always hit with one hand, that's used less often but is still an important shot to master.
