Working on Reaction Alone

Training

Dear Alois,

I have absolutely nobody in my family interested in table tennis and I don't have advanced equipment such as 100 table tennis balls. With this in mind, how could I work on my reaction when rallying against my opponent alone?

Thank you

Hi Patrick,

You can get them to hit the ball anywhere on the table while you hit back to one spot so that they can hit the ball faster and test out your reactions.

Long Returns

By throwing in some long returns you will keep your opponent off balance so when you do return the ball short they can't just be standing there waiting for it. But your long serve needs to be effective so they can't attack it too strongly. Watch this master class to find out all the important information about returning long.
