Hi there coach. I have problems in applying what I learned from our training in a match play. Whenever we have a match. I can't perform the strokes I did while in a multi-ball training. Is there some way how I can apply those "training strokes" in a match play?  thanks.

Hi Wayne,

There is a transition from multi-ball to a match situation.  This is one of the limitations of Multiball.  It is good to train strokes but in a match situation you need to track the same ball out and in and then make the movement and the stroke.

After doing the multi ball training to get the stroke right it is also important to do some one ball training during your practice session so that you get used to playing the stroke in a rally situation.

This is an important step in the training process otherwise you just learn to play strokes and not a game.

The Importance of the Backhand

Due to the speed at which the modern game of Table Tennis is played, the backhand has become a stroke which can separate the medium level players from the elite players. Make sure you pay attention to your backhand and develop it so that you opponent cannot get a soft ball by simply playing to your backhand.
