Smaller table for young players
Discussion
Rahul Mandrekar Asked 8 years ago
Hello
i have a seven year old boy who loves to play table tennis. I bought a joola mid size table for him as I don't have enough space for a full size table. Now I am worried that playing on a smaller table would negatively impact his game, thoughts?
Regards
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
It will be a good introduction to the game. It won't impact to start with, in fact it could help to develop control of the ball. It is also a little easier for children to develop control on the smaller table.
