Third or fourth ball attack
Strategy
Haseeb Ansar Asked 7 years ago
How can i improve my third ball attack when the opponent serves short rather than serving deep?

Hi HAseeb,
Then it is a 4th ball attack where you try to play the return of the serve short and force the server to hit the ball long to you and then you take the opportunity to make the attack off that ball.
The key is to be able to make a short return that is difficult for your opponent to keep short back to you.

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.
