Hi Edgardo,

To place the ball well, think about where your opponent doesn't like the ball coming.

For each opponent this may be different.  Firstly think about which is their weaker side, backhand or forehand.  Then think about where they are positioned for each ball.

To practice this you can play a game with your training partner where both players are not allowed to hit the ball fast but can only win the point by outplacing each other.
