I think we've all come across a time when you need to smash with your backhand,but how do you do it?

Hi Harry,

It is best to move around and make a forehand smash.  If you are caught then you should either play a topspin or a smash.  To make the smash you need to get your bat up high at the start position and then hit the ball flat on contact.

The banana flick has become one of the most important returns in table tennis. It allows you to attack almost any short ball and places your opponent under immediate pressure. Still it is a difficult stroke that takes a lot of practice to master.
