in the video, the men/guys who are hitting the ball 1 handed backhand, the ball doesn’t seem to go up high enough to cross the net…
and the thing is I can hit one hand backhand too…but it just WON’T go over…
and If i try to make it go over, it would be too high and make the game…. less fun… any tips?

Josh, they are using a ball launcher. What you want to do is: try and make it go over, but angle your racquet down so the ball wont fly so high.

If you watch the video, you’ll notice that the guy takes the ball low - much lower than you’d take a forehand - and swings low to high. This will impart some topspin and the ball should clear the net. That said, there’s nothing wrong with a two-handed backhand. I can’t hit two-handed, but Raffa Nadal does and it’s very effective.
