Preparation for competition
Strategy
eugene lu Asked 8 years ago
hi alois.
Our school has organized a team table tennis competition. I have persuaded a few friends to join the competition so that I can participate. They do not know how to play table tennis. I doubt they have ever touched a racket before. And we would probably only have one or two days to train them. What should I teach them? I'm not trying to teach them to be very good but at least good enough to prevent humiliation.
P.s. Most of the participants also never touched a bat before except for some of the school representatives.

Hi Eugene,
Teach your team mates to serve well and also to get some simple consistency to keep a few balls on the table.

Tactics Against a Good Short Pusher
Use a long push or a flick to open up the game against someone who is beating you at the short game. It might not be your favourite way to play but if you are losing the short game you need to mix things up. In the long run you certainly need to improve your own short game.
