Strokes
Hey Guys
I have a problem with blocking topspins without much spin with my backhand
Every time when I try to block it, the ball goes into the net, even when I open the angle of the racket very much, so is there a special technique?
Thanks Lukas
Hi Lukas,
When the ball has less spin it tends to come through slower. Firstly make sure you are moving in to the ball more to make the stroke and generate a bit more of the pace yourself. Often players will play this ball from too far away from their body and so lose some control.
Also open the angle of your bat a little as you are doing.
These things will all help you to get the slower no spin or "Breadmill" ball back.

We break down the three key concepts—start position, feet position, and finish position—to help you execute the stroke with precision. You'll also learn how to adjust your bat angle to generate varying degrees of backspin, depending on the spin your opponent imparts on the ball. Finally, we'll guide you through practical drills to enhance your proficiency and consistency with the forehand push, ensuring you're well-prepared for your next match. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your technique, this tutorial will provide you with the tools to master the forehand push.
