Training
I got my new bat today.
How can I get used to play with my new bat?
I don't have a table tennis partner, so how can I get used to my new bat alone?
Hi Fredrik,
It is always exciting to get new equipment. The best way to get used to it is obviously to hit as much as you can.
Since you don't have a hitting partner, you could just hit the ball against the wall or up in the air. Take a look at our lesson on Practicing Alone. This may also give you some ideas.
Good luck with that new bat.
One thing you can be sure of is that every top player will be able to keep the ball on the table with a solid block when under pressure. It seems that this is a pre-requisite to becoming a good player. That's why in this training session we focus on improving your block. If you can absorb your opponent's attack you will be in a good position to win a match against them.
