Strokes
Fairuzi Zafrano Asked 10 years ago
hi coach alois and jeff
I confused how to control the direction of my smash. in game I usually smash the ball just to the right of the oppenent's table side. I want to ask how to control the direction of the ball while i do a smash.
thank you ;)

Hi Fairuzi,
Try to focus on the angle of your racket on contact. If you angle th ball slightly more towards the left it will tend to go there.
The other thing to focus on is the timing of the stroke. If you are right handed, hit the ball a little earlier and it will go more to the left.
