Hi Nick,

Control is the ability to put the ball where you want to.  If we are playing a forehand it is about being able to put the ball on the table many times in a row.  The best way to improve control is to try and get as many shots on the table in a row as you can.

To confuse your opponent you need to produce variations in spin. Just by mixing up heavy backspin and light backspin, you make it really difficult for your opponent to control the ball. In this master class we discuss the best ways to achieve this.
