Table tennis, also known as ping pong, is a great pastime for friends and family. It is fun, social, and even offers some health benefits. It can be played in the comfort of your own home with friends and family or can be part of a more competitive team sport with leagues and tournaments. The game of ping pong can be learned at any age and skill level. It’s a fast-paced, high-energy game that requires both physical and mental stamina to compete at a higher level.
Ping pong is a game of constant movement and quick thinking. It can be hard to master at first but is very rewarding once you do. The most important thing is to practice consistently. This will help improve your timing and allow you to follow the ball with your eyes. This is key to keeping the ball low and ensuring that your shots are accurate.
Whether you’re a beginner or a veteran player, ping pong is an awesome activity for everyone! Here at Killerspin, we promote a lifestyle of #UnplugNPlay and encourage you to get out there and play ping pong with the people that matter most.
Find someone to play with and practice, starting out by playing one-on-one. You want to start with someone that is about your skill level or slightly better. It’s best to avoid playing anyone too aggressively as this will take away the fun of learning and practicing. Make sure you have regulation ping pong balls, paddles and a table (or use a pool table or something similar).
