Hi coaches,

I have a trouble on receiving low short sidespin serve.  I can recieve only approximately 1 of 4 low short sidespin+backspin serve. Is it better to practice backhand push by using the correct angle? or Is it better to practice on backhand flick? thanks!

Hi Ardak,

Getting the return correct is just a matter of time and experience.  I think it is better to user the push to start with.  Because of the backspin, the flick is more difficult.
