Concentration

Hi Alois,

I'm 12 years old and I just love playing TT,I've also been selected to represent my school in a competition.  But I feel as if I can't concentrate on all the techniques.  Sometimes When I'm playing a match, I forget the techniques. i also wanted to know that how should we be when we're playing a match, I mean should we relax or…?  please help me.  And your website is very useful and interesting.bye

Hi Yusra,

Congratulations on being selected for your school team.

In matches focus on the thing s that will help you to win points like where you are serving or placing the ball and what types of strokes they don’t like.

You can also think about your technique.  It is always difficult to focus on this as well.  That is why training is so important so that you get the strokes to become automatic.  This will come with time.  Go out there and try your best and work on doing your best in each game.  Relax and enjoy it.  The more you stress about the game the worse you will play.
