Hi Sachin,

Take a look at these links. We cover it in a topic on one of our previous shows. Show #244 - Playing Against Long Pimples.

Also we do have it as a Match Strategy lesson, Playing Against Long Pimples.

The main thing is to get your daughter to play against it as much as possible.  Get your self a long pimple bat that you can use when hitting with her or anyone that plays can sometimes just use the long pimples against her.

It is a matter of getting the feel of what happens to the ball when you play your shots.  Once she understands that the pimples give you back the opposite spin to what you hit then she will eventually get the feel and even be comfortable against them.
