How to return a heavy spin serve
Receiving
Sahil Amritkar Asked 10 years ago
The ball goes out of the side of the table when I return a heavy spin serve. How do I return the serve without losing a point.

Hi Sahil,
Use the angle of your racket to get the ball back on the table. Don’t try to do too much. If the ball is going to the left then angle your bat to face the right and vice versa. We have a series in our Premium lessons on Receiving Secrets that will help a lot with this area of your game.

Fake Movements
After the ball has left the server's bat, they can no longer affect the spin that is on the ball. Any movements after the contact are referred to as fake movements and are meant to confuse you as the receiver. You need to focus on the contact to read the spin.
