Muhaimen Ayyub Asked 14 years ago
First of all this website is awesome. I am playing table tennis for at least 4 months. I am not so pro I am just good I play matches with my fellows they are also good like me. I often lose matches when they serve very good like pro. Please tell me how to pick a difficult serve.

Hi Muhaimen,
This is the hardest part of Table Tennis. It is something that you will find will improve the more players you play against and the longer you play.
We are going to make a DVD on Receiving Serve soon so watch out for it.

Judging the Length of a Serve
A really important skill in table tennis is to be able to judge if a serve will be short or long. If it's short you won't be able to take a full swing at the ball and hence will need to use either a push or a flick to return the ball. However, if it is coming long then you can make a topspin attack. In this video we give you some tips to help you judge the length of the serve and hopefully this makes you a better returner.
