Racket and table

Equipment

I don't have enough money to buy an original racket as well as my table at home is just a simple table. So it's really hard for me to apply all the teachings that you have. I really want to know more about table tennis but I'm lacking of equipments. So what should I do?

Hi Alvin,

You don't need to spend too much.  The main thing is to get a rubber that is reasonable with some grip.  If you have that then you can learn the strokes well.

The table certainly doesn't have to be very good just a surface that you can bounce a ball on.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

Thank you so much sir :)
Is an RITC rubber good enough for me as a beginner?
Because it's the only available rubber in the market here at our city

Hi Alvin,

Yes RITC is definitely good enough to start with.
