Pre-Competition preparation
Training
Kabeer Sayed Asked 6 years ago
Hi, Alois.
I have been learning a lot from Pingskills and after half a year of playing for my club, I am preparing to compete in the London Youth Games. Do you have any suggestions for preparing myself? Thanks you.

Hi Kabeer,
Well done on taking the step of playing in a tournament.
The main thing is to go in there with an attitude of learning as much as you can. Work at playing your best on the day. In preparation, think about playing a lot of matches and tailoring your training towards more random situations where you don't know where the ball is coming.
We do have the 52 Week Training Plan where the last 8 weeks are focused on training in preparation for a tournament.

Your Opponent's Weak Spot
When playing a game, you need to think about where you place the ball. Every player is different and you should have an understanding about where their weak spots are. You should think about this for when you are attacking, blocking, serving and receiving. The weak spot may vary between these different parts of their game.
