Video #10 - Forehand Drive with Pivot Footwork

The key to playing a successful forehand pivot counterhit is all about the footwork in your initial shot and then in readiness, to prepare for the returning ball, which will be a forehand drive!  A true case of thinking two shots ahead!

Get your balance right, with the left foot out wide to play your initial shot, then shuffle to your left to open up the table for your forehand drive, when the ball returns.

All easier said than done - but the video shows how it is done.  Click [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] to watch how the good players play the shot.
