Singles and doubles improvement
Training
Wayne Sy Asked 13 years ago
Hi coach, I just wanted to ask something about improvement. If I were to improve and develop my singles performance, would I be able to improve my doubles performance just by improving my singles performance? thanks in advance

Hi Wayne,
Yes, singles and doubles performances are very closely linked. I don't like to focus too much on doubles unless you have a specific combination you are working on and it is close to a tournament.
You will see in Table Tennis that there are not really any specialist doubles players that are no good at singles.

Table tennis is a game of spin. In this training session you will develop your ability to get the ball to spin back towards yourself and then work on developing a tomahawk serve.

Hi Alois,
Can I play the backhand serve with lefthander in doubles? If I can, where should I place my body for my next stroke.
Hi Nasko,
You can, but try to stay close to the middle line and then move quickly to your left after you serve.
