How do I find a partner to practice with? I play once a week with my pal who had a stroke 7 years ago and can't really spin the ball so the scoring is weighted in my favour. I also play doubles once a week but always have different partners and different opponents.

Hi Roy,
You may be able to ask someone at the group where you play doubles or find a club in your area. Is this something that you have already explored?
Practice partners are not always easy to find but the search is worth persevering with.
Although attacking is the most popular style at the top level in Table Tennis, it is important to be able to defend well. If you choose to play a defensive style then you should be practicing these strokes all the time. If you play an attacking stroke then you should still try and find some time for these strokes. If you can win one extra point by defending well when pressured, it could make the difference between winning and losing.

Yes, in short. All the local clubs seem to major on their junior groups....no mention of oldies like me and would approach them if all else fails

Where do you live Roy ?
You could always put a question up on here asking for partners in your location.
Lots of 70 year olds in clubs.
