Hi Ryan,

You can use any old table to start with.  Deevloping the feel and coordination is easy to do on any type of table, even the kitchen table.

You can also hit the ball agianst a wall and let it bounce on a wooden floor.

Try doing some hitting the ball up inthe air as well, and seeing howl ong you can keep the ball in the air using different skills.  Try just hitting it on one side of your bat first.  Then try alternating sides.  You could even use the edge of your bat and see how long you last.

Any hitting of the bat pn the ball that you can do will be useful.
