Receiving
Hi, I've seen many of your videos and learnt many things but 1 thing I can't do is returning a side spin serve. I went to a table tennis tournament and lost because when my opponent serves a side spin and I touch the ball, it just flys away from the table, left or right.plz help.
Hi Adwaith,
This is something that improves as you play against these servers more.
You need to be able to adjust the angle of your racket to the amount of spin that is on the ball. The differences can be very subtle. In our lesson on Receiving Secrets we cover this topic in depth and give you some simple tools to use to help you to speed up the process of learning to return serves.
In this video we will talk about the different ways that you can deal with the half long ball. These include getting to the ball early and pushing it back as well as letting the ball come to you and playing a bigger stroke.
