  1. Why do I get so nervous when playing a match?

    I feel for her, it is a horrible sensation, hopefully she can understand why it happened and respond to it in a better way next time,
  2. Why do I get so nervous when playing a match?

    Did this a couple of weeks ago at practice, my partner hit a rocket behind my back into the backhand corner I’d just vacated and said “cho”, about three points later she repeated the trick. I’m just pleased we play for the same team in the league!
  3. Why do I get so nervous when playing a match?

    Which works up to a certain level… After which it becomes an issue as it will allow a good opponent to take control of the point. I’m pretty sure that my coaches advice is/was good, finding the right balance is hard though, you don’t want to get to 9 all then take on a couple of very low...
  4. How did this season 22/23 go for everyone?

    It was a struggle, we came second bottom of our division. I guess since we were newly promoted it was always likely to be hard. I suppose there were only a couple of players that were miles better than us, we got 8 or more points in a lot of games without winning very many of them. Must...
  5. Any Power Pong robot users?

    I would say no. However I do find when creating a drill that the sample ball tends to be a little bit different to the one that will be sent during the drill. This means first create the drill, then try it and gradually adjust each ball until it does what you want.

  9. Wait for tackiness to wear off?

    If the ball is going in the net, then it must be that you have played a poor / the wrong shot. For me this is often because of poor movement, too slow recovery from previous shot etc etc.
  10. Wait for tackiness to wear off?

    You’ll maybe not be pleased to hear that my I played a bit of the summer and the whole winter local league season with black STN on my forehand. It’s still tacky! I always clean with water and keep under plastic after use, probably play between 6 and 10 hours a week. I like the tack, but...
  11. Anti-Rubbers vs Pimples

    Sorry guys I didnt see the date on this thread. I swear it popped up near the top of my latest threads page, probably just technical incompetence on my part though.🙄
  12. Anti-Rubbers vs Pimples

    Deng Yaping? (Has phd from Nottingham uni.)
  13. Why do I get so nervous when playing a match?

    I don’t think you can, the important thing is how you react to the nervousness. My coach as a child was very keen that we always played and practiced positively, this is not smashing everything it is doing something constructive towards winning the point which might be pushing, but not just to...
  14. More Pros not enjoying WTT and its expensive Costs

    Given the above Is it any wonder this kind of thing happens? It’s a real shame but there just isn’t much money for players that are only exceptional, it seems that only the best of the best can make it pay...
  15. Chen Meng's using W968

    Chen Meng is obviously good enough that she can have whatever she wants made for her by DHS (or probably any other manufacturer). Is the suggestion that the Chen Meng (or any other named player) W968 is very different to the Ma Long ones or only very subtly different? Maybe they are drawn...
  16. Post your latest EJ purchase

    Hmmm 4 fixtures left, ej must not escape. I am interested in trying Glayzer this summer or maybe Dingtian or Triple double extra or …..
  17. Chen Meng's using W968

    I wonder why? Her game is quite different to ML. Nice to have option of a free W968 National to try out… Will be interesting to see how it goes, hope she does well with it! She must like it quite a lot to use it in a tournament.
