How to train ball placement 

Alois Rosario
Member Badge Alois Rosario Answered 4 years ago

Hi Tharun,

You can start by putting some targets on the table in the areas that you are wanting to play.  Think about playing outside of the areas that your opponent is ready to play from, essentially the middle of their forehand and backhand boxes.  Think about finding areas outside of this.

Once you start to find these positions, remove the targets and see if you can still maintain the ability to get the ball to more awkward positions on the table for your opponent.

See if you can transfer this to a match situation as well.

#3 - Consistent Combinations

In this session we focus on your consistency when playing combinations of backhands and forehands. Several routines in this training session make you constantly switch between a backhand and a forehand. If you can improve your consistency on these combinations it will really help you in a real game since your opponent will often be changing where they hit the ball.
