How to put sidespin on a short push and will it be tricky to do that?

Hi Ashley,

To put a bit of sidespin on the short push you need to just brush across the line of the ball a little.  So rather than getting the bat to go straight forward, you need to come across to generate the sidespin.  This will lessen your margin of error but it can be an awkward ball to receive if you get it right.

Here's a video to answer the question...

I've heard some players add sidespin to their returns (by brushing the side of the ball) in order to partially neutralize (be less sensitive to) the spin that is on the serve and decrease return errors.  Could PingSkills comment on this statement?

Good video, as you said on the video, it is better to hit the ball with a little of backspin :D

Hi Victor,

Yes you can do this but it can be risky.  It is best to just provide the bat at the right angle to get the ball back with the greatest consistency.
