hi coach hope you are doing well. My question is what is the best game tactic to use when playing close table players? Like mima ito style? Hope you can give me a good advice on how to play with this players. Usually I’m running out of tactical game play and ending up really frustrated to hit the ball more spinny but off the table errors. Thank you and more power.

Hi Ian,

Variation of speed and spin in particular are the things to focus on.  A player like this enjoys speed usually so if you can play some slower balls it may throw them off with their timing.
