Backhand Counterhit - Table Tennis Video Lesson
The Backhand Counterhit
The Starting Position
The Backhand counter hit has some basics that you need to perform to get it right. Your feet position has you facing exactly to where you want the ball to go. Check out Jeff in the Online video. You can see that he is facing where the ball is going. The stroke starts in front of your body with your bat flat (Vertical or 90 degrees to the floor).
The Finishing Position
The stroke finishes with your arm extended, your palm facing the ceiling and your bat at around shoulder to head high. Be sure that the bat finishes on the right hand side of your body for a right hander or vice versa for left hander. Don’t forget to have a look at the video. It will help you to get a good image of what you are supposed to be doing.
Practice your Backhand using the Consistency Chart. Make sure to keep the ball slow at first until you have really mastered the stroke. That means you can easily hit at least 100 shots in a row without a mistake. If you can spend just 10 minutes of your Table Tennis training session doing this you will be amazed at your improvement.
