Training
Hi, I currently have a table tennis table in my basement, and love to play on it. The problem is, no one EVER wants to play with me, so I am forced to hit against one side of the table. I can see a little improvement with how I am doing it, but I don't think I am doing it right.
Do you have any suggestions for how I can improve my game through playing by myself?
Hi Bradley,
Take a look at our lesson on Practicing Alone. I think this will give you some ideas.
Ultimately you will need to play against other players to really take the next step but for now I hope this will help.
If you get pushed back from the table don't just give up the point. Try and and get back into the rally. By lobbing the ball high and deep you give yourself time to get into position. If you can then get some topspin on the ball to force the smasher further away from the table then you are likely to get a weaker smash and then you can take your chance and try to counter attack!
