Blocked return
A short, firm block on a fast serve that uses its pace instead of making your own.
متى تلعبها
Against fast or body serves. When you are late and have no time for a full swing.
كيف تلعبها
Shorten the backswing to almost nothing. Firm wrist, racket face set to the target, meet the ball in front. Aim low and deep through the middle.
الأخطاء الشائعة
Swinging at a fast serve and mistiming it. Leaving the face open so the block pops up.

أسئلة
هل blocked return مسموحة في البادل؟
Legal under Rule 8.1: you must let the serve bounce in your box and play it before it bounces a second time. The return is good when it lands in the opponents' court, directly or off your own walls (Rule 14.1b).
