Multiball or One Ball

Training

Hello Pingskills,

My partner and I practice 2 or 3 times a week for 2 hours each time. We have been wondering whether it is better to take it in turns to feed multiball to each other or to do drills by hitting the ball back to each other.

Thank you

matt

Hi Matt,

I think doing a mixture of the types of practice is a good idea.  With multiball you can get more consistency and regularity of the feeding.  You can also increase the speed of the shots and reactions.  However, with someone blocking you get a much more realistic feel for the shots and you are tracking the same ball through the rally.

I think it is great that you have a practice partner that you can train with regularly.

Being able to play a third ball attack from both wings is a huge step in your development. It means that your opponent has no safe place to push the ball long. This week we ask you to perform a number of match drills that require you to play third ball attacks from either side.

matt,you can be glad that you have a sparing partner.

I have not so much luck.

90% of my training is done with an old,inconsistent robot that even cannot shot a spinless ball
