Following the ball
Strokes
silas seandel Asked 6 years ago
During play should the player try to follow the ball right into the racquet on every shot or just try to anticipate where the racquet and the ball will make contact and keep eye contact toward the opponent?

Hi Silas,
Welcome back...
You tend to watch the ball till it is about 30cm away from your bat and then rely on the tracking and memory for flight paths. It is difficult to watch it all the way into your bat.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…
Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
