Training
I and my friends are beginners at table tennis. I told them about your coaching tips and how can we increase our consistency using different practices but they don't agree, they think that we can play better only by practicing fast and spinny shots. What should I do?
Hi Rudraansh,
The first thing is to get the stroke correct and then you will be able to be more consistent. Increasing speed and spin is the next step.
Getting it to a match type speed is important in training but if you are not making any shots on the table then it is difficult to know what a successful stroke feels like.
It's important to take the initiative in a rally. My old coach used to call this forcing the pace. To get better at forcing the pace, we are going to consciously go for more power on our third ball shots. We may miss a few more balls but that is part of our development.
