Hi, I currently have a table tennis table in my basement, and love to play on it. The problem is, no one EVER wants to play with me, so I am forced to hit against one side of the table. I can see a little improvement with how I am doing it, but I don't think I am doing it right.

Do you have any suggestions for how I can improve my game through playing by myself?

Hi Bradley,

Take a look at our lesson on Practicing Alone.  I think this will give you some ideas.

Ultimately you will need to play against other players to really take the next step but for now I hope this will help.

Beating Defenders

Against defenders you've generally got a bit more time to make your attack and so you can be more selective on which ball to target. Think about finding your opponent's weaker side and whether they prefer a faster ball coming towards them or a slower ball. Try different spins, speed and placement! Watch the video now to learn more great tips on how to beat a defender.
