Hi Praseed,
Thank you for being a fan of our videos! That's great to hear. Reflexes are a very important part of a successful table tennis game, and it sounds like your son may benefit from some focusing exercises to help him build up his reflexes. There are several drills that can be done to help improve reflexes, such as focusing on the ball more thoroughly and reacting quickly to unexpected balls.
