Common mistakes

Leaving the paddle where it was after a return.

The next ball often comes to the other side. Get back to the middle right after you hit.

Always returning at the same angle.

Hit with the middle of the paddle for a straight shot and the edge for an angled one. Mix them up so your opponent can't read you.

Tips

• When your opponent's paddle is stuck at one end, angle the ball to the other side for an easy point. Aim opposite to the direction they've just started moving.
• After each return, bring the paddle back to the center so you can reach the next ball on either side.
• Read the bounce off the wall in advance and get to where the ball will land first.
• Your opponent adapts if you keep sending the same angle. Mix straight and angled shots.
