Hi!

Is it ok to practice with the same partner every time?

Thanks!

Hi Gicu,

It is OK but if you have the option to train with other players then it will help you develop.

If you are playing with the same player you will start to pick up cues of that person's play and anticipate things they are likely to do.  When you start playing different players you may find that you are moving in the wrong direction.

When playing a game it is about how quickly you can adapt to your opponent.

#8 - Fast Footwork

In this session you'll focus on increasing the speed of your footwork. To do this we ask you to forget about consistency and concentrate on speed. You should be playing at a pace where you can get around 4 or 5 balls on the table. If you are getting 10 or 20 balls on then you need to up your pace again. It's important to play right to the edge of your ability to actually increase your skill level. We also continue to develop the new serve you have chosen to work on.
