Strokes
Ishita Batra Asked 13 years ago
How do I hit a forehand smash with proper technique without basic errors like the ball hitting the net or going out of the table? I am a school level player and have to play next week please help.

Anticipation
How is it that a player can always seem to get back those extremely fast topspins? Is it their incredible anticipation? The key to good anticipation actually lies in tracking the ball well. When you watch the ball closely your peripheral vision will pick up your opponents movements and with lots of practice those signs will help you anticipate what your opponent is going to do. This happens naturally with lots of experience. So it it your job to ensure that you are tracking the ball really carefully.
