- So, in tennis we have tie-breaker, yes.
- In squash we have Set 2.
- So, they are one and the same thing?
When we start embracing tennis terms I get concerned that we will lose our games language which I thought we were trying to preserve, eg Lob/Toss, Smash/Volley Kill, Split Step, and so on.
- Just wondering, as a few failed seaches are coming through which in fact are referring to tennis terms.
- Maybe our "Squash Speak" needs to be expanded?
You reckon?

tennis players do it when the are coming to net just prior to making a volley.
I coach the split step when a player is moving to the back of the court (especially on the backhand) to return the ball off the back wall. it improve balance and therefore accuracy.
I will be adding someting on this to our library shortly.
ps a split step is also used at times on take off
