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.

#32 - Effective Returns

In this training plan we put together all of the different returns we've learnt and focus on producing an effective return. You should be aiming to topspin all long serves and then weighing up your options on the short serve. A good short push is a great option but you also need some variation with either a flick or a long fast push. Go out and put this training plan into action and work on improving your return.
