Cadete (behind the back)
A shot played behind your back instead of a backhand, used when the ball is too close to your body or has got slightly behind you.
متى تلعبها
When a ball on your backhand side is too close to turn for a backhand. Mostly a show shot: a normal backhand is usually safer.
كيف تلعبها
Let the ball come level with or just behind your body. Swing the racket behind your back with a short, controlled movement. Aim high and safe over the net.
الأخطاء الشائعة
Trying it when there is time for a normal stroke. Hitting hard, which sends the ball into your own glass or mesh.

أسئلة
هل cadete مسموحة في البادل؟
Legal under Rule 14: any stroke counts if you hit the ball once with the racket in your hand before its second bounce (Rules 13c, 13i and 13m), and it then goes over the net.
