Worry not pal! Just apply those comments above and you will see a big change in your game. Just yesterday I experience the great effect on focusing on returning the ball nice, enjoying every stroke you make, play on your phase not your opponent and position your body were you are comfortable on...
For me I put glue on both wood and sponge of the rubber and I think that is applicable to any rubber. Make sure you only put an exact amount of glue not excessive, because the wood and the rubber will absorbed the moisture of the glue.:o
For a rookie like me the feeling of being nervous is always getting into my nerves and my concentration during the match is easily disrupted.
Do you know any method or way to have a mind set that will overcome this weaknesses?
Thnk you and Godbless!:)
