This is very useful!!! But what if we stand on our backhand, and opponent places the ball far to forhand?????
If we jump one step to loop the ball on forhand, and the opponent blocks the ball widely to backhand, what kind of footwork we should do to counter this????

Hi LeangHeng,

If you use the side shuffle then you will still be in a balanced position to be able to push back and shuffle sideways into position for the backhand.

Thank you Al.  I am sure my knee replacements will not stand the rigours of the jump step when done at speed.  I will give the shuffle step some practice time and see what happens.

Hi Al,

Yes take it easy with the knee.  Sometimes you just have to compromise.

hey, I've done this at the Coburg TT Club. it sure gave me a workout. my coach puts it so wide in each corner. He said that next, he'll include short, deep and fast ones. Although, i did do quite well on my first try, so i might manage with a bit of practise! :)
