Training with Dad
Training
Matthew Czapek Asked 9 years ago
Hi! I live in Hungary in a little Village. We do have a table tennis table ant bats and balls... but I've managed to reach the level of ping pong knowledge where from I can't increase more skills alone... my dad can play but he's worse than me. Sad thing: the nearest place where I could learn or have lessons is 50 miles away. Do you have any tips? What would you do in a situation like this? (sorry for the bad english)

Hi Matthew,
I think the best solution is to help your dad to learn how to feed multiball. Then he will be able to help you greatly with you training.
Take a look at the section on Multiball. If he can do this for you, you will be able to gain a high level of training.

Switching Between Forehand and Backhand
Playing forehand and backhand strokes individually in practice is an important step in your development but to use them effectively in a game situation you must be able to switch between them. This sounds like a simple step but it's something you must practice. Lesson 10 focuses on ensuring you can quickly switch between your backhand and forehand table tennis strokes.

Hello Matthew,
Alois is right, if you can teach your Dad to feed you multi-ball that would help you a lot with your practice. Also if you could just get him to try and do some rallying with you might help. Can your Dad serve a topspin or backspin ball? If not maybe you could teach him that and get some good returns off of them.
Good luck and have fun. Keep practicing and let us know how you are doing. :-)
