Oh yeah he can. But your post also made me realize that I wrote: attach third ball. ATTACK. Don't attach third ball. But do attack it.
Truthfully, attack the serve should be on there. But Der has some other tricks like, how to push the ball and vary the spin to fool the opponent. Those would also help a person's play skills go way up. Worth including those. But, I have a feeling, grip pressure will be all over Der's TT coaching. So......
Sure, grip pressure is one of my standard explanations of how to affect the outgoing ball.
The post where I listed all those things to discuss on a thread is exactly that, stuff to discuss on a coaching thread I will make later.
The kind of stuff Carl is looking for is an assessment, training plan, and strategic goal achievement plan.
Strategic goals (for the sake of TTDers who do not understand my terminology) are things to achieve or be able to perform way down the road several levels later, but are beneficial to begin training much earlier. eg - begin to learn pushing short/tight at USATT 1300 level, so that when player is approaching 2000 level, they can execute the shot or require less training to get needed performance.
