How to return a side spin

Hi Ralph,
You first need to see which way the ball is going when yo hit it. Then angle the bat to face the other direction and this will counteract the spin on the ball.
We have a lot of information on dealing with spin in our Receiving Secrets section.

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.
