The Short Push
Training
Junaid Akhtar Asked 8 years ago
I've been playing for a year and a half and I've been watching your videos from day one. I had recently found out how important it was to short push when returning serves. Could you please make a video about the short push or give me some general tips.
I tend to short push the ball and it either ends up too high where my opponent can flick or it goes into the net. Thank you for the online videos too!

Hi Junaid,
Watch our video called the push in detail as I think it will help you out. There's also a really good video called keeping the ball low which will also help you a lot with your short pushing.
It's great to see you paying attention to this critical part of the game. Keep up the good work!

Long Returns
By throwing in some long returns you will keep your opponent off balance so when you do return the ball short they can't just be standing there waiting for it. But your long serve needs to be effective so they can't attack it too strongly. Watch this master class to find out all the important information about returning long.
