Table Tennis // Ping Pong ~Videos Inside~

Post by pipigrande »

I'm really into Table Tennis ever since three years ago. I have won a couple of tournaments and I'm the varsity team at my university.

I hope that Table Tennis will get very popular in North America as it is in Europe and Asia. Here is a list of videos of Table Tennis which I find are the best to promote the sport and make people interested in it:

Code: Select all

NOTE: At higher levels of competition it's hard to hit the ball because of the amount of spin that the ball has.

Its a very interesting sport. People might think it`s very easy to play it, but they`re wrong. It`s not easy at all, when you achive a decent level. I`ve been playing for like 2 years.. Got over 20 medals, with 18 of them are first places. Got into a national league, but quit due to studying at school. Had a lot of exams that time, and I couldn`t really find the time to play.
But whoever likes this sport, should go and train seriously. Might get into an international league, which will be very fun imo.

I couldn't agree more with you guys. Most people think table tennis is easy. That's because they might go to the gym and see sixty years old people playing it or fat people playing it. Matter of fact is that, it's easy to play but extremely hard to master. Table tennis is one of the fastest sports out there (if not the most).

Needs lots of practice in order to be good. Needs a very good hand-to-eye coordination at higher levels.

I just wished table tennis was popular in North America.
