Hi Nick,

Control is the ability to put the ball where you want to.  If we are playing a forehand it is about being able to put the ball on the table many times in a row.  The best way to improve control is to try and get as many shots on the table in a row as you can.

Watch this master class to learn the correct way to generate more speed in your strokes.
