In Table Tennis what is the crossover point of a player??
Alois Rosario Answered 14 years ago
Hi Akshay,
The crossover point is where they need to chage between a forehand and backhand. It is usually for most players in line with their armpit. Some players will tend to favour their forehand and play forehands from a wider area and some players will do the same with the backhand.
It is a good area to play to because there can be indecision as to which shot they should play from that area.
