Forehand to backhand switch
Training
Abdullah Gilani Asked 13 years ago
Hi Alois,
When I play I have trouble switching my forehand to a back hand if the ball is coming down to my backhand. Please advise a drill to work on this deficiency. Thank you
Abdullah

Hi Abdullah,
To improve this you can do a lot of switching drills in training. One simple one is to get your training partner to control the ball alternately to the two sides of the table and you switch from forehand to backhand.
Download a free copy of our Training Drills from the Free downloads section of our site. In there you will find a whole lot of drills that you can utilise. Look for the PingSkills drill and the Triple switch drill. These will also help.

#38 - Backhand 3rd Ball Attack
The backhand topspin off backspin is often considered a harder shot than the forehand. In this week's training session we focus on utilising this shot to make a 3rd ball attack. If you can master this your opponents will find it difficult to stop you attacking and you will constantly have them under pressure.
