The distance from the table
Strategy
Oliver Asked 14 years ago
Hi
I was playing the other day and my coach told me to time my block so that I hit the ball as soon as the ball bounces from my side and to stand close to the table, even when counterlooping. When I watch the people on the national teams play, I realise that they all stay far away from the table when blocking and looping.
So I was wondering, how far from the table should I stand when I am playing? Should I listen to my coach or should I copy the professionals?

Hi Oliver,
The professionals only move away from the table when they need to.
You should try to stay close to the table as much as possible because that cuts down the time that your opponent has.

As a defender you need to keep the ball low and deep, use variation of spin, speed, and placement, and attack occasionally.
