Hi Zan Li,

Improving your forehand, backhand, and serving in table tennis involves practice, proper technique, and adopting strategies that suit your playing style.

It is good to be concentrating on some of these foundational skills to improve your game now and into the future.

Take a look at the following sections and tutorials.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

  1. Your feet position
  2. Your start position
  3. Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
