Hi coach,

How do we play against unusual players.We have some of them in our club.They play absolute non conventional table tennis.They play no spin balls.They will stick their blades to a heavy spin serve and make life difficult .How do we deal with such players.Specially with the no spin ball.The no spin ball gives a lot of trouble.
