    A. Link Crew

    The correct answer is "Link Crew" because it is the only option that makes sense in the context of the question. The question asks for the name of a 9th grade support group, and "Link Crew" sounds like a plausible name for such a group.

    • The Baseline

    • At home

    Correct Answer
    A. The Net
    Explanation
    The correct answer is The Net. In a volleyball game, the net is placed in the middle of the court, dividing it into two equal halves. The players on each side of the net try to hit the ball over the net and into the opponent's side of the court, while also trying to prevent the opposing team from doing the same. The net is an essential element of the game as it determines the height at which the ball must be played and adds an element of challenge and strategy to the gameplay.

    WHEN HITTING A FOREHAND GROUNDSTROKE, A RIGHT-HANDED PLAYER STEPS WITH WHAT FOOT?

    • Right Foot

    • Both Feet

    • Left Foot

    • No Feet

    Correct Answer
    A. Left Foot
    Explanation
    When hitting a forehand groundstroke, a right-handed player typically steps with their left foot. This is because the left foot provides stability and balance while generating power and transferring weight during the stroke. By stepping with the left foot, the player can shift their body weight forward and rotate their hips and shoulders, allowing them to generate maximum power and control in their shot.

    THE DIRECTION THAT THE PADDLE FACE MOVES DETERMINES WHAT?

    Correct Answer
    The direction that the ball will travel
    Explanation
    The direction that the paddle face moves determines the direction in which the ball will travel. When the paddle hits the ball, the force and angle at which the paddle strikes the ball will influence its trajectory. If the paddle face moves towards the right, the ball will also move towards the right, and vice versa. Therefore, the movement of the paddle face directly affects the direction of the ball's movement.

    WHEN USING ANY GRIP, WHY IS THE TRIGGER-FINGER IMPORTANT?

    Correct Answer
    It controls the Paddle Face
    Explanation
    The trigger finger is important when using any grip because it controls the paddle face. The position and movement of the trigger finger directly impact the angle and orientation of the paddle face, which in turn affects the direction and trajectory of the shot. By properly controlling the trigger finger, players can ensure that the paddle face is aligned correctly and achieve better accuracy and control in their shots.

    • The Western Grip

    Correct Answer
    A. The Eastern Grip
    Explanation
    The correct answer is The Eastern Grip. The Eastern Grip is a common grip used in tennis for executing backhand shots. It involves placing the base knuckle of the index finger on the third bevel of the racket handle. This grip allows for better control and maneuverability while hitting backhand shots. The Western Grip, Continental Grip, and Poly Grip are not commonly associated with the backhand grip in tennis.

    EXPLAIN HOW TO STRETCH YOUR QUADRICEPS.

    Correct Answer
    Stand Upright holding your right-ankle with right-hand or left ankle with left-hand.
    Explanation
    The correct answer explains how to stretch your quadriceps by standing upright and holding your right ankle with your right hand or your left ankle with your left hand. This stretch helps to lengthen and loosen the quadriceps muscles, which are located at the front of the thigh. By holding onto the ankle and gently pulling the foot towards the buttocks, you can effectively stretch the quadriceps and improve flexibility in this muscle group.
