Returning sidespin

Alois Rosario Answered 14 years ago

Hi Poh,

If they have put sidespin on the ball you need to allow for the spin with the angle of your racket.  If the ball wants to go out to the left then angle your bat to face the right.  This will counteract the natural tendency for the ball to go to the left.

If you are having problems purchase a copy of the Receiving Secrets Revealed DVD.  This will give you clear explanations and also show in you detail how to return different types of serves.
