Receiving

I’ve played ping pong and I usually get a lot of spin serves sent to me, but I’m not that good at returning it. How do I know how to return spin serves for beginner?

Hi Man,

I think returning serves is one of the trickiest parts to start with.

We have a few tips for you in our Training 101 section on Returning Spin Serves.  I think this will help you.

After that we have a whole Premium section on Serving and Receiving that will help you.

Fake Movements

After the ball has left the server's bat, they can no longer affect the spin that is on the ball. Any movements after the contact are referred to as fake movements and are meant to confuse you as the receiver. You need to focus on the contact to read the spin.
