Hi coach, how can i return/attack a ball that is middle long and low? I cannot either topspin it or flick it, what am i suppose to do?

Hi,
This can be a difficult ball to deal with. Try to get the ball early while it is still close to the net. Once it gets too far from the net the ball becomes awkward to deal with. Use a push stroke if the ball is low. If it is a bit higher then use a flick shot.

Anticipation
How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
