Strategy
Hi, Coaches.
Today, I played against an opponent who was particularly skilled at keeping the ball low and short enough so that looping would be hard. How do I force him to return with a higher ball to initiate the attack? Should I continue pushing the ball into hard-to-return places in hopes of an error or is there a way to initiate the attack without waiting until the opponent to make a mistake?

Hi Henry,
It is best to try and keep the ball short and beat him at that game. If he is the first player to stray long then you will get the opportunity to make the first attack.
If you find that you are not strong enough at playing the short game, then try to surprise him with a long fast push and hope that he is not ready to make an attack.
