Can you please tell what and how should a defender practice?

Alois Rosario Answered 11 years ago

Hi Rutvik,

There are similar drills for defenders that you can do. If you look at the Training Drills download and then adapt that for defence. For example instead of doing the FH FH footwork with a counterhit you can do it with a chop.

We also have a lesson on Defensive Footwork which will help you.

The push is an important part of Table Tennis. It is a defensive stroke which you use to make it hard for your opponent to attack. This week we give you a number of pushing drills and even incorporate some pushing games into the session for a bit of fun. We continue to work on your serve and in this session we concentrate on your placement.
