Hi Pingskills,

Our country is one of the candidates to host the World Cadet Challenge 2014. Therefore we have started our national training,

However all we ever do at this training is play games.  How can i improve?

Hi Ramon,

If you have the opportunity, try to organise with a partner to train some skills.  Perhaps you can talk to the coach and ask if you can work on some drills.  Which country are you in?

If this is not possible, then while playing your games focus on one thing such as improving your forehand or backhand or your footwork.

#42 - Study Your Opponent

This is the second training plan focusing on match strategy. Last week we looked at your strengths and building a game around that. This week you should examine one of your competitors and pick out their weaknesses. Then you can design some training drills to expose those weaknesses. By doing this you'll be able to exploit them in a match situation and win points more easily.
