Strategy

Hi Alois,
This is still about my try-out, of course I will have a match to a unknown player so I don't know if he is good or not, how to prepare for my situation.
Thanks, Joshhua

Hi Joshhua,
In this situation you need to focus firstly on what you are doing and make sure you are playing well. Then as the match starts you can think about the things that you can do tactically to find ways to win points against that particular opponent.
When you start the match, do a few different serves to see what works. Then do the same with your returns and your placement in the rally.
