Tactics for blockers
Strategy
Jasper Low Asked 5 years ago
Hi alois, what advice do you have for blockers against different types of styles?
Alois Rosario Answered 5 years ago
Hi Jasper,
The main thing is to use variation of placement as well as speed to keep the attacking player off balance.
Also try to stop the attacking player from making an easy first attack. As we develop our "Playing As" Series we will add a video about this.

Tactics Against A Defensive Chopper
A chopper likes to get back from the table and get into a nice rhythm. If you keep the defender close to the table in the early part of the rally, it's hard for them to transition back into their chopping position. So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.
