Playing with my amateur friends

 Hello,

First I want to thank you and encourage you for you passion and Professionalism towards this sport and helping others.

My question is that I was playing as an amateur for a while and I fell in love with the game and decided to be professional and started training with a coach and I am doing so good in training and improving. The problem is when I play with my mates that is used to play with before training its so hard to play in the right way as I learn in training and from your site and win because my mates play in a random way not paying attention if they do the right moves and they invent their own hits but they win many times.

So how to balance between playing in the right way and being able to handle any random hit in my advantage without imitating them and doing wrong moves just to get the point.
