What should I do if my opponent hits the ball to the top if I want to smash or loop the ball.

Hi Oday,

If the ball is high, above shoulder height you can think about smashing it.  To make the smash take a look at our lesson on the Forehand Smash.  If the ball is lower than that then you should make a Forehand Topspin.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
