Table tennis: to bounce off!
Table tennis, the official name for ping-pong, was invented by English soldiers in India at the end of the 19th century. They first played with books and a golf ball. Back in England, bats were developed, a lighter ball and a serious table tennis table. Table tennis was for the elite in the early years, but quickly became very popular. Table tennis became an official Olympic sport in 1988.
Physical explosion
Table tennis is a fast-paced game. And super intensive. You use all your muscles. Always ensure the correct position with your legs and feet. You strike with your arms and hands. And of course you also use your back and abs with every stroke. Then remember that a game only lasts 20 minutes on average and you know that a game of ping pong is a physical explosion.
Keep your head cool
Table tennis is therefore a physical sport, but you can only win if you keep your head cool. As a player, you must always pay attention to your opponent's weaknesses and the effect of the ball. And then you have to think in a split second how you best respond to that. Table tennis is therefore tactically intensive and requires focus and power from the players.
