Hi

I would like to know where the first bounce should be to make it bounce twice.

And when i should hit the ball,just before it reach the table or at net height?

Thanks for answers :)

Hi Alvin,

Get the first bounce close to you on your side of the table.  It can be about 15 to 30cm from your end line.

You can hit it at net height or even higher so that the ball can bounce over the net.  If you hit it from too low it will go into the net.
