Hi Tri,

You don't need to use too much power of your own if they are playing fast.  Start with a blocking action and then just put a little topspin on the ball by brushing forward over the ball.  Utilise their pace against them.

In this video we talk about the position of your legs, weight transfer, varying the finish position, incorporating footwork, the use of your wrist, and the angle of your bat for the stroke.
