Response to pace

Training

Hello,

I am a solid intermediate player. My problem is that I have no one with fast strokes and no machine to play against so I lose consistency against pace. Is there a way to drill fast strokes and fast reaction short of buying a machine?

Thank you,

Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,

You could train someone to feed to multiball.  With this they can feed the ball quite fast and give you good training.  It doesn't take a lot of skill to be able to feed the ball well and fast.

We have started a series of lessons on multiball for our Premium members.

It's important to take the initiative in a rally. My old coach used to call this forcing the pace. To get better at forcing the pace, we are going to consciously go for more power on our third ball shots. We may miss a few more balls but that is part of our development.
