Playing beginners

Judah Cagas Asked 12 years ago

Hi coaches,

I have a problem with beginners.i always play with those who are high levels and when it comes to beginners i am not usual to their style and serve.they serve the hit bounce bounce serve and i topspin it and it goes out.How should I overcome that?

thanks

Hi Judah,

Think about making sure you get the ball on the table first. If you are better than the other player they will rely on you making mistakes. If you eliminate the simple mistakes, you will start to beat these players.

You're used to balls with spins while those beginners play no-spin balls. Just revert to your stroke basics: forehand and backhand counterhit with different placements and you'll be fine.
