Slow players- quick players

Strategy

Justin O'Toole Asked 12 years ago

How do you play against slow players who deliberately slow the game down so you have to play at a speed your not used to. They know you normally play extremely high speed games so they slow down. When your used to the ball coming over with lots of speed, power and heaps of various spin.

They deliberately slow it down to beak you rhythm so what can you do.?

Hi Justin,

It is a matter of relaxing and just go with the flow. Take your time between points as well and use the time to focus on what you are going to do next. The worst thing is to show them that you are getting frustrated with it. In fact when they are ready you can just take an extra second to get organised.

So keep the ball short on your serve and try and catch them unprepared. Watch the video to find out more great tactics to use against a defensive chopper.
