标题: 壁球高手请进
我现居住地downtown apartment有一免费壁球场，希望高手不吝赐教。当然了请先给我讲讲壁球规则，壁球拍的鉴别及出售地。不用急，陪练两天，您就有了一位同行高手可以切磋啦! :cool:

downtown哪个位置的apartment附有壁球馆设施啊？知道规则，也会玩，但不精，不能教人，感兴趣你的楼在哪里，因为我也喜欢这种运动。

作者: 2002weiwei 时间: 2003-10-1 09:15
知道规则这就讲讲，打得不好没关系，重要的是我们一直在进步。downtown near subway atwater,pa store.告诉我那里可以买到壁球拍？谢了。

Is it the building on Fort, below St. Catherine ?
I played there once years ago.
It is an American size court.

I can show you how to play
if you have all the equipment.
You can buy the equipment package,
which includes racquet, ball, eye protector, bag, from the YMCA on Stanley.

作者: 2002weiwei 时间: 2003-10-1 18:37
yes,helloman,you are right.the building is located at the south of st.catherine.keeping the court for me until today,so i should play it well as soon as possible.thanks for your information.i will take the combo equipment this week.would you like to be my teacher for a week？ wink you mean you play it more than one year? :confused:

自从我喜欢上打壁球后，我就放弃了打网球，因为这是两种不同的挥拍姿势，我有一副全新的球排，和新球，到这以后，都没开过封，正苦等着球友，规则我知得不多，有兴趣可联系一下，NICE TO MEET YOU. mailto:JOEYAU88@HOTMAIL.COMJOEYAU88@HOTMAIL.COM</a>

我算半个高手吧，请问你是男是女？是想打球还是交友？是想锻炼身体还是激烈竞赛？

作者: helloman 时间: 2003-10-1 22:43
Sure, I can show you and anyone else
how to play.
I think that a better arrangement would be that
You schedule a game or a practice session
with other players on this board.
On that day,
I will show up earlier to explain the game.
While you people play,
I'll stay on the sideline
to observe and suggest corrections.
Both of you would improve together.

you mean you play it more than one year

I meant I played on that court one time
many years ago.
I used to play a lot but hardly any in recent years.

壁球的起源相当有意思。它是由19世纪初伦敦监狱里的犯人闲来无事对着墙面击球以锻炼身体和调节监狱生活气氛发展而来，后来在英国培养皇室后代的哈卢公学得到改进。随着19世纪末英国的对外扩张和殖民统治，壁球被英国的对外扩张和殖民统治，壁球被英国军官带到了英联孝国家，并迅速在世界范围内普及开来

　　早期的壁球场地受地域限制，规格无法统一，出现了好几个不同版本，其中尤以北美地区派生的场地差别最大。经历了12年的讨论（1911—1923年），一块于20世纪初建的，位于伦敦巴斯俱乐部内的场地被选作标准场地。它的概念是一个封闭的室内长方型空间，长 9750毫米，宽6400毫米，前墙高4570毫米，后墙高2130毫米，净空高度应不低于5600毫米；分前后场，后场又分成左右两个半场。场地系统包括：前墙，两面侧墙，玻璃后墙，木质地板，照明系统、空调及通风系统，空调系统的送风口应位于靠近前墙的房顶内。

球拍大小介于网拍和羽拍之间，长度不能超过686毫米，拍头绷弦面积不得超过500平方厘米。球拍采用铝合金、碳铝、碳钛等轻质材料制成，球弦采用合成材料。壁球按弹性大小依次划分为兰点球、红点球、白点球和黄点球。黄点球为标准比赛用球，其他几种适合初学者，或非正式的慢节奏比赛和练习以及室温较低的球场中。

　　打壁球时，一般要穿翻领T恤加短裤或短裙，与网球服大致相同。选择时，以舒适、吸汗、透气性好和方便运动为准。打壁球最好穿壁球鞋，其特点是质轻、耐磨、制动性好，鞋帮处经特别加固，对脚踝起到支撑和保护作用。因国内尚无此类鞋出售，爱好者可以网球鞋替代，注意要选浅色底的球鞋。

　　壁球比赛通常采用3局2胜或5局3胜制，记分办法有2种，即9分制和15分制，前者为球权得分，若打至8平，由先得到8分的一方选择加赛1分或2分；若出现9平，则1球定输赢。15分制也称每球得分制，多用于顶级职业赛事中，目的是缩短比赛时间，加快比赛节奏，方便电视直播；当双方打至14平时，先得14分的一方有权选择加赛1分或2分，若出现15平，则1球决胜负。

同网球和羽毛球一样，壁球也非常强调基本功的训练和技战术组合。上肢基本功包括正、反手的直线球、斜线球、截击球、轻吊球、挑高球，以及壁球独有的侧墙球和后墙球。下肢基本功包括连续侧移步、后撤步、上垫步及后交叉步，其特点与羽毛球接近。脚步移动的要领是，多运用拖步、垫步，少用大跨步，因为后者用力过猛容易拉伤肌肉，对膝关节和踝关节也容易造成伤害，另外一点就是不容易在快速移动中掌握平衡；而良好的平衡能力是保证精确击打的前提。要想练就出色的脚步移动，需要注意步伐、平衡、重心转换、节奏、判断和空间位置感六个方面及其联系。

　　壁球比赛的战术大致分为前场战术和后场战术及两者之间的转换。在后场打直线球时，一定要尽量使球的飞行线路贴近侧墙并注意其长度和落点；打斜线球时，强调尽量触及侧墙靠近后墙的区域，且要很好地控制其触及点的高度。打前场球时，重心要低而稳，动作虚实兼顾随机应变；强调手腕的细微变化，以及对对手位置的准确判断，并且出手要果断迅速。

　　因受篇幅限制，诸多详细技巧就不一一赘述了，感兴趣者可咨询有关培训机构。益处篇

　　玩壁球堪称一项高效率的健身休闲运动。据国外运动医学专家多年研究证明，相同时间内，同等水平选手之间的壁球比赛，其运动量和锻炼效果，是相同条件下网球比赛的3—4 倍！高节奏的脚步移动、击打频率和变幻莫测的球路，与灵活的技战术结合在一起，使参与者在相对短的时间里不仅得到心肺功能及肌肉、关节和韧带的锻炼，而且使其灵活性、协调性和柔韧性得到很好的改善；判断力、应变能力和果敢性也同时得到相应提高。

　　算笔花费账，因是在室内打球，用在捡球上的时间非常少，回报就更好。且因为1个人也能打，所以无须刻意寻找对手或等待同伴，自主安排也更方便。一个人对着墙壁狠狠地发泄一下，也不失为一种有效的宣泄手段呢。

壁球进阶技巧十则

1.打直线，保持良好的球距。

2.击球时，将球击向后墙角。

3.打直线球，让球紧贴侧墙边。

4.击球后，迅速返回中场。

5.时刻关注球和对手的动向。

6.让你的对手满场奔走。

7.尽量使用截击球。

8.适时延迟击球。

9.控制比赛的节奏。

10.尝试打短球。

基本技术指导

　　壁球的打法及技战术相对简单，但由于场地小，球速局面，球的红路，角度变化大，因此想要打好壁球并不容易。壁球的技术包括落点准确，多变刁钻的发球技术，强有力的击球以及正确的步代。击球时可长抽短吊，亦可大力扣杀。

壁球运动基本比赛规则

当比赛开始，球员选择了发球权之后:

1. 发球一方可以选择在右后场或左后场地发球

2. 发球一方在发球的一刻，必须以一只脚踏在发球区内(不能踏线)

3. 发球离开球拍后必须直接接触前墙，在前发球线以上及边界线以下，当壁球弹离前墙后，必须落在另一方之后场内

4. 壁球在发球时击中发球线，边界线，地发球线，半场线等均被判出界或发球犯规

发球后，比赛过程中:

1. 每一个有效的击球必须接触前墙一次，壁球在底界线之上以及边界线之下

2. 每一个击球必须在球弹离前墙后，在未触地板或只能一次弹离地板后击出

3. 在比赛过程中壁球击中边界线，底界线等均被判为出界

4. 若发球一方击球失误或未能回接对手所打出的好球，发球权则转给对手，同样若接发球球员击球失误或未能回接发球一方所打出的好球，则发球一方将获得1分

计分方法:

国际性(英式)的比赛是采用9分制，须先获得发球权才可以得分。如果到了第8分后平手，先得8分的球员可以选择打2分(共10分)或照原本计分法打1分，以9分终局

thanks helloman's information,this afternoon i got the squash package from ymca at the price of $80,and from the sprts expert store,i also find the professional shoes for squash from $39.99-149.99.and according to regulation of my building,everyday we can play one hour under the pre-arrangement.okla,i am ready,how about you?

作者: helloman 时间: 2003-10-2 22:45
I'll be free for an hour between 4pm and 6pm this Saturday, between 1pm and 3pm this Sunday.
After you book a court, you can announce it here
so that if Alex Xu, JOEYAU and Siena are free,
they can go too.

10月2日18：30-19；30我适应了一下场地。9月底刚刚修整好地板。一开始感觉壁球的弹性太差，用的是蓝点球。壁球在sports expert store售价3。99/个。用力打才可打到后场。运动量还真有点大，有点地像我上青藏高原的缺氧。网球的击球姿势加上羽毛球的步伐,专用壁球鞋很有必要；多用滑步来救球。但有助于练好网球的反手击球。对侧击球理解不够。正面墙的击球回合可达几十次。此楼还有免费游泳池，卫生间内有淋浴和桑拿，楼顶有花园观景台。两个管理员15：30交班，处理好有两次打球机会，我会慢慢做通他们的思想工作。周六的时间可能性比较大。周日15：00-17：00我有事。欢迎指导，谢了！

Yellow dot ball is the regulation ball,
that is used in regular games and competitions.
Blue dot is the bouncier version.
It is easier to hit the blue dot to length.
Though less challenging than yellow dot,
it serves as a good starting ball to learn the game.
You should get a yellow dot ball too
as you will need to switch to it eventually.

用力打才可打到后场。

Hitting a hard and fast shot is only part of the game.
Hitting a good lenght shot(meaning to the back)
is even more important.
If you want to save energy and hit it to the back of the court,
you can hit it high up on the front wall,
then the ball will go farther to the back.

运动量还真有点大

Yes, it is true.

但有助于练好网球的反手击球

The backhand in squash is very different
from the backhand in tennis.

After you decide the exact time and book a court,
you can post the details here.

明天下午16：00-18：00欢迎指教。实际上今天壁球室一天没锁门。但我也只练练截击球。因为我网球反手主要是削球，感觉不出和壁球反反手有何不同。请授意下真正的壁球反守的握拍姿势和击球要领。多次的反手截击很难高出底线上方50cm，原因何在？另外球离侧墙很近如何处理？正手击球在前墙越上方，回球离后墙越近，如何回球更自如？

　　壁球比赛开始时的发球权是通过转动球拍的方式来确定的。比赛的战术也很简单，你只需击打壁球，让它在墙上反弹，所走的线路要让你的对手不能很好的回击。由于壁球单打比赛是两名球员同在一个场地进行，所以规则规定，击球者在击球时享受不受对手妨碍的自由。为了避免球员受伤，规则对球员挥拍动作的幅度也有一定的限制。

作者: 2002weiwei 时间: 2003-10-5 17:52
　　壁球比赛的战术大致分为前场战术和后场战术及两者之间的转换。在后场打直线球时，一定要尽量使球的飞行线路贴近侧墙并注意其长度和落点；打斜线球时，强调尽量触及侧墙靠近后墙的区域，且要很好地控制其触及点的高度。打前场球时，重心要低而稳，动作虚实兼顾随机应变；强调手腕的细微变化，以及对对手位置的准确判断，并且出手要果断迅速。

　　据国外知名运动学家的多年研究和统计，在相同时间内，同等水平选手之间的壁球比赛，其运动量和消耗的热量，是同等条件下网球比赛的3～4倍。经常打壁球，对人的耐力、爆发力、心肺功能、肌腱力度、相关韧带和软组织，以及血液的携氧能力、空间位置感、心理承受能力、随机应变能力和自我克制能力的培养有很大帮助，另外，它还可以使人们养成尊重对手、保持礼仪的优雅风度。壁球运动员的体形介乎于网球选手和羽毛球选手之间，既有前者的力量、速度和矫健，又有后者的柔韧、灵活和协调。而壁球比赛集速度、力量和节奏感于一身，观赏性很强；壁球那奇妙的运行线路，特有的折线飞行，使得本来就很精彩激烈的比赛更平添了几多变化和意想不到的悬念。

It is truely an exciting game.
the unique feature of this game is the angle shot.
I've seen some amazing angle shots in tournaments, that take your breath away.
For example, from the front court,
hit the ball high on the front wall,
the ball then bounces off high on the left side wall,
travelling high in the air to the back of the court,
landing almost vertically to the back corner of the right side.

Another point I want to add is that
since both players play alongside in the same room,
footwork is important not only to get to the ball,
but also to back away from it after hitting the ball,
so that your movement would not hinder your opponent's run to retrieve the ball.

When I used to play a lot years ago,
there were times that I had such an exhausting game
that I was totally drained
and almost had to crawl out of the court
after the game.
The feeling was one of happy exhaustion.

Since there is now a chance to play the game
without court cost,
it is a wonderful opportunity to pick up the sports.

作者: 2002weiwei 时间: 2003-10-6 23:58
today i try more than 20times about your amazing angle shot as amazing angle shots in tournaments, that take your breath away.from the front court,
hit the ball high on the front wall,
the ball then bounces off high on the left side wall,travelling high in the air to the back of the court,landing almost vertically to the back corner of the right side.

only once can reach your point almost in the opposite direction for the reason that i am the left-hand player.tomorrow i go to mcgill gym to be used to the international court.hope to get good results.thanks for your encourage.i keep going to make possible progress.anytime welcome to be here or there to teach many more skills of squash.thanks anyway.

　发球权规则

　　1．第1局发球权用转拍方式决定，取得发球的一方得胜，该球才能算分，若失误，对手得胜不计分，只得发球权。

　　2．发球区分左、右边，当发球方第1次在左方发球区得胜后，必须转换至右方发球区发球，再得胜后换至左方发球，直至连续取得9分，才算获得1局胜利。

　　3．若发球方失误，由对方取得发球权，可重新选择在左边或右边发球，发球得分后，须再换边发球，依此类推。谁先胜一局，第二局发球权就归谁，由胜利者先发球。

作者: helloman 时间: 2003-10-7 11:50
For a beginner, after learning the basic techniques,
doing drills alone is as important as playing games with other players.
"Drill" means that
you do the same shot(or shots) repeatedly,
for example 20 to 30 times in a row.
The patterns can vary from a single shot
to multiple-shot combinations.
The purpose is to gain a deeper understanding of the movements,
then reinforce the movemnts into muscle memory,
so that when you are in a game,
the movements come as instinct, second nature.

I'll have some free time this coming weekend
to show you some more.
As usual, anyone else interested to learn or play
is very welcome to join.

昨天在麦积而体育馆感觉到国际场地和美式场地的区别，就本人自身条件讲，比赛更中意于国际场地。美式场地适于个人练习。这几天着重于基本功的练习，反复练习同一动作和角度，好像兵乓的推挡。正如你所说，前场救球后不能迅速退回就位，因为习惯动作是前迈步，重心过于前倾，往往救到球却丢分。需要改进。很高兴长周末有时间，欢迎指导。喜欢壁球的朋友跟贴告诉我时间即可。周日我有事。

I will probably be free at around 4pm this Saturady.
I'll post again to confirm by Thursday evening.

Yes, international court is more challenging and exciting for playing games.
American court can serve as a drill court.
Originally Amercan court is designed for a different, faster ball.
The ball is called "70+" ball.
I think, though not sure,
the name "70+" refers to the temperature in Farenheit.
Anyway 70+ ball is very bouncy,as much as a pingpong ball.
You can just imagine how the game looks like.
With the ball flying by left and right all over the place, it can get chaotic quickly.
The techniques and strategy for 70+ ball in American court
is very different from those for yellow dot ball on international court.
The paradox is that after getting used to the speed of 70+ ball,
a player doesn't need to move as much
because the ball will come to you most of time.
In yellow dot squash game, a player has to get to the ball,
so need to spend more energy.
The popularity of traditional 70+ game
has been shrinking for years.
I think very few people play it these days.

今天在sports expert买了比赛用的黄点球。练习了一会，的确弹力差了许多。好在最近开始恢复羽毛球锻炼，脚下步伐跟得上。需要增强反映和判断力。再练。

壁球拍握法正確與否，對於掌握和提高壁球技術水平有著重要的影響。壁球技術中的握拍有多種，但是基本的握拍法是將虎口對著拍邊的棱邊，拇指和食指貼在拍柄的兩個寬面上，食指和中指稍分開，中指，無名指和小指並攏握住拍桶，手腕垂直曲起，鎖定手腕。大部份世界級的好手一般都採用這種握法

作者: 2002weiwei 时间: 2003-10-9 19:20
發球是球員在發球區將球從手中拋高然後用球拍擊出，拋球時不可將球拋向側牆或彈地後擊出，發球球員必須最少有一隻腳完全站在發球區內，而同時不可踏線，球拍向外張開，使之直接彈向前牆之發球線與界外線之間的位置，但不可以擊中界線，並落到對方接發球區內的技術動作。發球作為組織進攻的開始，其質量的好壞，直接關係到比賽的主動或被動，以至贏球得分或喪失發球權。基本的發球有以下兩種：

（1）　發高吊球：握緊球拍，將球從另一手中拋高使之下落到約腰部高度時，球拍自後方沿身體向斜前上方揮動，然後順勢向斜上方緩沖。將球擊向接近界外線高度，並以拋物線先撞側牆而落到後場。關鍵是擊球之高度、力度及角度，使對方難以回球。
（2）　發平快球：將球拋高至發球線高度以上，握緊球拍，並充份利用轉身及前臂帶動的爆發力向前方用力擊球。使球撞牆後直接落到對方身上或側牆及後牆的死位。關鍵是發球的力度及對方的位置。

作者: 2002weiwei 时间: 2003-10-9 19:22
還擊對方發過來的球叫接發球。接發球和發球一樣，都是壁球最基本的技術。在比賽中同樣起著重要的作用。如果說發球發得好是走向勝利的開始，那麼也可以說，接發球接得好是走向勝利的第一步。發球方利用多變的發球來打亂接發球方的陣角爭取主動。接發球方則是通過多變的接發球來破壞發球方的企圖。因此，對初學壁球的人來說，接發球也是不可忽視的技術。

（1）接發球的站位和姿勢：接發球之球員多站位於中線與側牆之間及發球區之後的位置。身體稍向側牆，球拍舉在身前，兩眼注視對方發過來的球。

（2）接發各種來球：一般來說，回擊任何來球，最佳方法就是將球推向兩邊側牆後方。若對方發球失利，可以用殺球還擊。發球者若發球不貼後牆或側牆，此球是一次進攻的機會，還擊得好，就掌握了主動。但初學者常因後場技術沒掌握好，還擊球的質量較差，以致遭到對方的攻擊。因此，要提高後場的進攻技術

你们要注意，打壁球有比较大的危险性，主要是因为球速比较快，而且是橡胶球，如果打倒眼睛就很惨了。你们最好去买一副运动眼睛。还有就是在前场的时候尽量不要回头看。

freedom,谢谢你的提醒。保护眼镜是很有必要的，尤其是在你不熟悉对手水平的情况下；另外和初学者练习时要加倍小心他的挥拍动作。昨天和教练打球时已经见识到壁球的高速特点。
helloman,i send you the court information through the email,hope to see you again soon.

作者: helloman 时间: 2003-10-14 11:48
Wei, I got the mail. Thanks.

It is important to wear protective goggle.
Start by wearing it in practice
to get used to the feel and develope a habit.

还有就是在前场的时候尽量不要回头看。

In a squash game, one is supposed to follow
the movement of the squash ball at all times
in order to be able to react quickly.
As long as protective goggle is worn,
it should not be a problem to look back
even in front court.

According to the string repairman,
the cost of restringing my old racquet
is not worth the effort.
I will need to use a different racquet.

2002weiwei,
I would like to familiarize myself with another racquet.
Are you game for a practice session at about 6pm tomorrow(Tuesday) evening ?
Please confirm.

A suggestion:
you can link up with other squash players in your building
by posting a note somewhere in your building,
for example, the bulletin board in the laundry room.

I knew beforehand
that my body would ache after a match.
I still couldn't resist to run hard during a game.
Well, the running wasn't really all that hard
by my old standards
but my long-underused muscles were not quite ready yet
for the stretching, lunging, sudden change of
direction, bending and the various demands of a squash game.
Now I am sore everywhere,
especially in my right hamstring.
I think I might even have strained a muscle in there somewhere.
For the next few days, I will be moving in sloooow
motion until my body recovers.
Overall, I am mildly satisfied by my performance
in the match this evening.
The fact that I could hit length shots
and stayed in the game was a step in the right direction.

2002weiwei,
Thank you for your hospitallity.
Sorry for not dropping by to return the ball
but the library was going to close soon,
so I had to run, well more like limp, rightaway.
If I recover in time,
we can probably have a practice session this Sunday.
We'll see in the next few days.

My recovery is slow so far.
Weekend dancing is now a doubt.
I hope that sauna and soaking in hot water
will speed up the recovery.

It is good that you will have a chance
to watch the top players compete.
Everytime you watch a good match,
your horizon of the game will expand.
You will see how the good players execute their shots
in smooth and efficient manner:
how they move around the courts effortlessly like cat;how they apply different strategies to gain edges.

When I was active in this game long time ago,
I find that my game improved the most
after watching top players play,
then got back to practice with renewed enthusiam and vision.
After you have solid basic techniques,
you need to play a wide variety of players
to deal with different styles and gain match-play experience.

In Montreal, some clubs organize open tournaments
once or twice a year,
for example, Montreal Amateur Club on Peel street
just north of Maisonneuve;
Atwater Club on Atwater street just north of Sherbrooke.

It is not that rare for one side to get no point in a squash game. I've seen similar cases in tournaments.
I've also seen players coming back from 0-8
to win a game at 10-8.
Even in high level matches, it is still very possible.
In the final of 2003 World Junior Women's Championship,
Australia's number one player, Brown,
lost 3 straight games, getting not a SINGLE point in all 3 games, to Egyptian's number one player,
who happens to be world junior champion.
See part of the report below:

Egypt declared themselves world champions today in historic fashion when they beat the Aussies in style to claim the title. Playing on their home court, and in front of their home crowd, the Egyptian team proved to the world their unchallenged strength in the finals against Australia.

The opening game between Badr and Australia's Urquhart was the closest of the match. Urquhart was put on great pressure by the Egyptian's attacking, basic game. Badr made very few errors and constantly moved Urquhart to control the " T " and match, and won in three. The Australian had put on a huge fight but Badr was just the better player today.

Next came world junior champion, Abdel Kawy, against Australia's number one Brown. Brown had played a five game thriller the previous day with England's Pierrepont and some may have thought that the Aussie could offer the world champion some challenge.

Those who thought so were very wrong.

Playing dazzling squash, Abdel Kawy refused to drop one single point in the entire match, illustrating the huge gap between her and the other players in the tournament. Everything the Egyptian did was just perfect. There were no mistakes from the Egyptian's side and Brown found herself helpless to a determined Abdel Kawy. With Abdel Kawy ' s 27-0 win Egypt won the title. "Winning the team title completes my dream. This is just great for Egyptian squash and for Egypt," said the eighteen year old world champ.
In the dead rubber El Waleily only dropped three points. Egypt had won the match and team title in spectacular fashion in front of the cheering crowd.

I just found out that a squash tournament
will take place this coming weekend, Oct 31 to Nov 2.
The club is Mirabel tennis and squash club in Pointe-Claire, near Fairview shopping center.
The first rounds in all categories will start at around 6pm on Friday.
Most good matches are usually found on Saturday, with the semi-finals and finals on Sunday.
From my past experience, it is free for anyone
to go in the club to watch the matches on tournament days.

If you are interested in squash,
you should definitely go to catch a match or 2.
