Firstly thank you for bringing an excellent training portal for table tennis. It is useful to train my 9 year old daughter and for myself to enhance my skills. Can I request you to provide few basic videos how to start training my 4 year old son. Just to get feeling of ball.

Hi Vinod,
I am glad that the site has been useful.
We have a series in the Training section titled Beginner Training 101 which I think will be ideal. The basic skills we go through there are suitable for all ages.
The main thing is to develop control and feel of the bat on the ball. We show you some simple ideas that I use in schools with young players.
Let me know if these help you and your son.

#32 - Effective Returns
In this training plan we put together all of the different returns we've learnt and focus on producing an effective return. You should be aiming to topspin all long serves and then weighing up your options on the short serve. A good short push is a great option but you also need some variation with either a flick or a long fast push. Go out and put this training plan into action and work on improving your return.
