Technique problems
Strokes
Fernando Dornelles Asked 13 years ago
Well, I am 15 years old, I'm from Brazil. And I think I play table tennis well. I have a problem in time to the attack. I can not hit the broad side of my opponent, I always mistake. So the question is: How do I hit most of the attacks I take against my opponent?

Hi Fernando,
Think about making sure your technique is correct first. While you are playing the strokes focus on the way your bat is moving.
If they are attacking use the Backhand Block and Forehand Block techniques we show you in our lessons. This is the easiest way to return attacking strokes.

Forehand Block
The forehand block is one way to counter a topspin stroke hit to your forehand side. Learn this stroke and you will be able to keep yourself in the rally even when your opponent get the first attack in.
