small space

Strategy

Hey Alois,
Your lessons have been helping me. The only thing is that where I play, at my school, there isn't much space. You can only take one step back and then you hit the wall. Do you have any tips that can give me an advantage of playing in that space?

thx,
Dan

Hi Dan,

Playing an attacking game that forces them away from the table would be best. So ensuring you gain the first attack is important.

Their backhand may be a weakness if they use the traditional style, or you may wish to explore the crossover point if they are using the reverse penhold backhand.
