Spins
A proper stroke can lead to great natural spin on the ball. Rather than chopping at the ball or using your wrist, brush the ball with full follow through. The result will be power plus spin!

Recognizing the spin on the ball is key to moving and being able to return it. If a ball has underspin, you need to focus on getting under it. Hard topspin deep to the back court might look like it is going out but may drop in with a higher bounce.
Most people know when they made a mistake. Being a good partner, doesn’t always mean correcting, but rather encouraging. “Nice try”, “Good idea”, or “You’ll get it next time” can go far in helping your partner get over frustration.
Patience with the dinking game can lead to put-away shots. To keep your opponent off guard, keep them moving by placing the ball in a different spot each time.
