Hi Elly,

I think the best idea is to attack early in the rally.  Ince you get into the rut of pushing it is more difficult to make the attacking ball.

If you can do it on the 3rd ball it becomes much easier as you can set it up with your serve or return of serve.

Tactics Against a Good Short Pusher

Use a long push or a flick to open up the game against someone who is beating you at the short game. It might not be your favourite way to play but if you are losing the short game you need to mix things up. In the long run you certainly need to improve your own short game.
