At my school table tennis club, i find it very difficult to play some opponents who are not that skilled and just push the ball back. I find it very difficult to start attacking although it is easier to play using my style against more experienced opponents. Which strokes do you recommend?

Hi Jamie,

I would use the Forehand Topspin Off Backspin.  This will let you spin the ball when it has different types of spin on it.

Sometimes players that play different spins are more difficult to play than players that hit the ball cleanly.

Can we hit topspin to the ball having any type of spin or just angle varies each time

As long as the ball is long then you can play a topspin.  As you say, then the angle of your stroke varies depending on the type of ball you get.
