Training
I got my new bat today.
How can I get used to play with my new bat?
I don't have a table tennis partner, so how can I get used to my new bat alone?
Hi Fredrik,
It is always exciting to get new equipment. The best way to get used to it is obviously to hit as much as you can.
Since you don't have a hitting partner, you could just hit the ball against the wall or up in the air. Take a look at our lesson on Practicing Alone. This may also give you some ideas.
Good luck with that new bat.
To win against defenders you need to think about your tactics. Simply hitting every ball hard makes it easy for the chopper to get into a nice rhythm. You are much better off varying the speed of your attacks and drawing your opponent in and out.
