To put a shock absorber on a tennis racquet, you need to separate the two strings you want to put it in between, get one side of the absorber in there, and then use your strength to get the other side to go into the other string.

What are the parts of a racket?

There are three parts of a tennis racquet. The part that you hold is the "grip". Above the grip is the "neck". Someone who holds their tennis racket by the neck is said to be "choking" their racquet; this is not the correct way to play. The part that you hit the ball with (and the largest part of the racquet) is called the "head". The part makes up the head is the "rim". As for a badminton racquet, I would assume that it's very similar.

What are the faults in pickleball?

There are service faults. Each player is allowed 1 serve. There are lines, so a bird hit out of the court is out. Please note that service and game lines differ for singles and doubles. When serving, the racket cannot come above your waist. Also when serving, your feet must remain on the floor until the bird is hit. There are many violations that include unsportsmanlike conduct, coaching while in gameplay, throwing your racket, yelling during points, and many other conduct issues.


Can you use your hand in ping pong?

Yes; the ball can hit anywhere in the area below the wrist of your paddle-hand. Also, sometime in 2011, they changed the rules to allow the ball to hit that area TWICE, if it was accidental -- that is, as long as it's the same continuous stroke of the paddle -- and, the ball can never hit any place other than that area. For example, if the ball deflects off your wrist AND THEN nicks/scrapes part of a finger, that's OK -- you just keep playing the point. However, if the ball strikes any area above your wrist (of your paddle-hand), then you lose that point (i.e. volley) -- and game then resumes as normal with the next serve for whoever is serving. Another note on this: If you suspect your opponent of hitting the ball twice outside the area mentioned above, then you should immediately call a "let" and clarify what you saw and declare the point is yours. However, if your opponent says it didn't happen that way, then you MUST call for a "referee" IF you do not accept the opponents' explanation of where/what the ball struck -- HOWEVER, usually you would ACCEPT your opponents' explanation, because table-tennis is a game among honorable players.
