What Your Guru Thinks

This covers a very important aspect of the game, learning how to handle your opponent's smash. Many players smash a lot, even if it's not always a winner, and knowing how to position yourself can help you win more points against them. The coach provides specific ideas on where to stand and how to read the play. It gives you actionable steps to feel more comfortable when a smash is coming your way.

Welcome back everyone!

Today we are going to focus on defending the smash. I think you can win a lot of points on countering the smash! So many players are trying to finish the point way too early, but we are not training the counter attack much.
