Defending as an Attacker

Strategy

DHS Lover Asked 10 years ago

Hi PingSkills

My style of playing table tennis is as an attacker

But when is the time to defense just like block or chop? As I only try to attack the ball as an attacker.

Hi Frendy,

If you play the ball long and they are able to make the attack, it is important to be ball to block or defend. The best attackers have a very good defence as well.
