In this video I explain how to return short backspin serves. This is a very common serve and fairly straight forward to get back over the net. But there is a real skill in returning this serve well and putting the server under pressure.
In the video I look at three main options for returning a short backspin serve - a touch return, a push return or a flick return. I explain the benefits of each option and also briefly describe how to do each shot.

It is so important to use different strokes. I never noticed, that I always blocked to the same spot on the table until a training partner told me. Now I will try to use different return shots with different spin and positions. Thank a lot for these useful tipps.

Yes, I'm the same with my forehand attacks. Always cross-court by instinct. I really have to override my brain to play down the line.

Great video. 👏🏽👏🏽 Have you heard of the VR? There is a game that feels very realistic on the oculus quest call "eleven table tennis" you should give it a try and use your skills there for training. See you there for some fun. 👍🏾

Thank you for really useful recommendations 👍 By the way, as an attacking player, amateur of course, sometimes my hits end up below the net. Any tips or videos on how to do smash on balls like this that have really high backspin?

As explained in the video, you can attack with a flick (either backhand or forehand)

How do you know if the spin is heavy or light?

Nice video Coach, however I see sometime ur arm is close to ur body while playing backhand drives. As learnt from you earlier, it may reduce the quality of the shot. Let me know if I am wrong.
