Hi Alois
I have been playing table tennis for 2 months now but still i can hardly receive smashes.
What should I do?
Hi Karl,
This may tale a little longer. Don't worry and take your time with this game. I have been playing for 40 years and I still miss sometimes when they make smashes.
Smashes are difficult to return because they are often traveling pretty fast. Your best bet is to move away from the table and try to lob the ball back.
The main thing to think about though is to stop them from making the smash. Try to keep the ball lower and to more difficult positions so that it is difficult for them to make the smash.
