In table tennis, many new players (and some experienced players as well!) get carried away with trying to hit the ball with more and more power.

In this article I'll be examining the downside of hitting without a plan, and then I'll discuss how intelligent use of ball placement can create more opportunities for hitting winners and winning games.
