Technique problems

Strokes

Well, I am 15 years old, I'm from Brazil. And I think I play table tennis well. I have a problem in time to the attack. I can not hit the broad side of my opponent, I always mistake. So the question is: How do I hit most of the attacks I take against my opponent?

Hi Fernando,

Think about making sure your technique is correct first.  While you are playing the strokes focus on the way your bat is moving.

If they are attacking use the Backhand Block and Forehand Block techniques we show you in our lessons. This is the easiest way to return attacking strokes.

Snake Shot

A snake shot is a type of stroke which is specifically used against a drop shot. It is usually loaded with a heavy spin so that the opponent finds it difficult to counter. The type of spin can be backspin, sidespin or topspin depending on your choice. You need to make a movement after hitting the ball to confuse your opponent.
