How to train ball placement

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.

In this session we introduce some random drills. A random drill is where you don't always know where the ball is going. Random drills are really important for your development as they are more game like. You need to be able to play your strokes well even when you don't know where the ball is going. We also continue to work on your new serve. This week we introduce a target into your service practice to help you gain even more control on your serve.
