Getting better

Training

David David Foeckler Asked 9 years ago

Hi, I'm 14 and I would consider myself pretty good at table tennis. I've been playing recreationally and would like to get better. I'm not in any leagues or anything but I play against my friend very regularly.  I have mastered my forehand topspin/slam. What can I do to get better? should i buy a robot? Look for clubs in Va? ( live in VA )

Thanks, David

Hi David,

The USA Table Tennis website has a club finder that should help you find one.
