About this quiz

What this tennis strokes quiz covers

Forehand, backhand, and serve are the backbone of every rally, and this quiz helps you connect technique to real match situations. Expect questions on grips, contact point, body rotation, footwork patterns, and basic tactics for different balls.

Each question is multiple-choice with 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can think through mechanics and decision-making instead of rushing.

Skills you’ll practice

You’ll build a clearer mental checklist for clean contact and repeatable swings, especially under pressure. The set also reinforces serve fundamentals like toss placement, rhythm, and safe targets.

Identifying correct contact points for forehand and backhand
Choosing grips and understanding what they change (spin, height, control)
Matching footwork and spacing to the incoming ball
Spotting serve toss and timing issues that cause misses
Recognizing when to hit topspin, slice, or a safer margin shot

Common pitfalls (and how to avoid them)

Many misses come from late preparation, drifting too close to the ball, or trying to “arm” the stroke without using the legs and torso. On serve, inconsistent toss location and rushing the motion are frequent culprits.

Difficulty and question count options

Difficulty is mixed by design: easier items check core concepts, while tougher ones test nuance like spin management, direction control, and situational choices. Before you start, select how many questions you want to answer and set the difficulty level that fits your current training focus.
