Hi Mark,
Try to get the first bounce close to you. When you are down low, really get your bat coming through fast and contact the ball a little flatter to get the ball to move faster.
In training I find a good tool is to try and hit the ball just off the end of the table. This will free you up to swing through a bit faster. If you are trying to hit the ball down the line, put a target on the table to aim at.
