How to return a topspin serve

Subscribe  Join online academy

Some players struggle to return topspin serves. They either pop the ball up too high or overhit the return so it misses the end of the table.

What is the best way to return a topspin serve? How can you return these serves and put your opponent under pressure?

  • Block
  • Drive / hit
  • Topspin

Watch the video, try out the three different options and see which works best for you.
