Hi Alois!
When my opponent serves a short serve to my left side i try to top-spin it aggressive but the ball goes in the net or out, what should i do?

Hi Kristofers,
If the ball is short then it is better to try and push or flick the ball rather than make an aggressive topspin.

Judging the Length of a Serve
A really important skill in table tennis is to be able to judge if a serve will be short or long. If it's short you won't be able to take a full swing at the ball and hence will need to use either a push or a flick to return the ball. However, if it is coming long then you can make a topspin attack. In this video we give you some tips to help you judge the length of the serve and hopefully this makes you a better returner.
