Does playing doubles help you play singles

Training

Roger Willoughby Asked 14 years ago

Hi,

I'm not too keen on playing doubles, I don't really enjoy it much except playing for fun with friends when it can be a really good laugh. But I would play it more often if I thought some aspect of it would help my singles performance. So my question is - Does playing doubles help you play singles?

Many Thanks

Roger Willoughby

Hi Roger,

I don't think there is a lot of benefit in doubles for your singles game. You are better off practicing more singles if you have to make a decision between the two.

#33 - Defending with the Block

One thing you can be sure of is that every top player will be able to keep the ball on the table with a solid block when under pressure. It seems that this is a pre-requisite to becoming a good player. That's why in this training session we focus on improving your block. If you can absorb your opponent's attack you will be in a good position to win a match against them.
