Training
when practising my forehand topspin against a partner should I just get them to block or should I get them to topspin back?

Hi Dave,
You can do both. I would start by getting them to block for you so that you get the feel of the stroke. Then you can get them to start using topspin back to you. This makes it more difficult but you can adapt to that.
By throwing in some unexpected long returns you will keep your opponent off balance and this will make each short push you do so much more effective. That's why it's important to be able to return long. You've got 2 options. You can flick the ball or push it long and fast. This week our focus is on these types of returns.
