Hi Andrew,

You need to play theĀ Forehand Topspin Off Backspin. The more backspin that is on the ball, the more vertical your stroke needs to be to help lift the ball. The other key is to ensure you have a brushing contact.

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.
