Hi Roger,
I think that making a sidespin back is one of the easiest ways to deal with it. Take a look at our lesson on the Sidespin Forehand Topspin. In there Jeff is blocking the ball. You can do this but you need to allow for the sidespin by angling your bat slightly. So if the ball is going to spin off to your left, you need to face the bat to the right and vice versa.

Stop Coming Back to Ready Position! Do This Instead…
Most players are told to always return to the ready position after every stroke but that might be hurting your game. In this video, we reveal a smarter way to recover:
✔ Track the ball immediately after your shot
✔ Move your racket into position for the next shot instead of blindly resetting
✔ Improve your timing, balance, and flow during rallies
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced player, understanding this subtle change can have a big impact on your consistency and speed around the table.
