Hi Samuel,

It is used a lot in the warm up but you certainly can use it in a match situation.

If the ball comes fairly flat to you it is a good way of placing the ball. It is a good way to get control on the ball in the rally.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
