Staying on the attack against slower players
Strategy

Hi John,
Because he isn't giving you much speed you should take your time. Wait for your opportunity when the ball is in a good position to make a strong attack.
Your stroke can be a little more forward swinging to generate the speed.
It can be frustrating playing these sorts of players but if you have some patience you will do well.

Tactical Planning
Spin, speed and placement are the 3 things you need to focus on when coming up with your tactics against each of your opponents. Start with the serve and your third ball attack. Figure out what type of serve your opponent finds most difficult. Find out where is the best place to direct your first attack. Is your opponent better at blocking with their backhand or forehand? Does your opponent prefer a faster topspin or a slow spinny topspin? Do the same for your returns.

Taking my time actually worked better than I expected. I was worried that I might not be able to attack; but to my surprise, the opportunity would eventually come.
Thanks
