Right, in simple terms I'm not as good as I want to be right now. I lack consistency when it comes to match play. I'm either very average or come out and look like a world beater (not in the sense I'm as good as that but believe me I look a hell of a lot better play when I'm on fire). Negatives...

Hey I'm trying to learn new serves as it is one of the weakest parts of my game (yeah bit bad when its one of the most crucial things). I would actually say I'm a very good player (but obviously no where near the best) but trouble is my serves are not intimidating. Other than perhaps my reverse...

So I understand we all have days when we are not at our best but for me I want to learn how to push myself more. At the weekend I played NJL and at the start I wasn't awful but I wasn't great. Last match of the day we play a team from Norfolk who were by far the best overall team there. There...

A while ago I posted on here to say I was getting frustrated with myself now I'm buzzing! Start of the league season I'd won something like 1 out of 6, I should have at least won 4 more. Admittedly I was coming back from a back injury but was o frustrated one match and Id never done this before...

The other day during when we were training, one of the players was off to the Junior national championships. I played her, lost 11-9 but irritate it took me so long to start attacking but overall played well. At about 5-6 we lost the ball I brought back another but she wouldn't play with that...

I really don't know what to do right now! I'm a fairly good player, strong technique, work really hard yet as soon as I play matches it all goes wrong! I lose way to frequently particularly at top table but other matchew as well. I do practice irregular drills etc. Bit my frustration llevels...

Ok a few days ago I put up a thread about choosing a blade and thanks for all your responses, however I think I'll probably choose Joola Fever over Stiga Infinity since it has the anatomic grip which I prefer. I looked at other reviews online and they all came back good, I was just wondering if...

Hey, I'm looking to change by current blade (decimate) but keep my joola rhythm rubbers, my coach and I spoke and since I'm offensive and generate enough power I could look at a softer blade to give me more contact and control. Any suggestions? I know it's best to try first but maybe I can find...

Hey, soon I'm starting my level 1 coaching course and I was wondering if anyone had any advice when it came to coaching. I'm not bad at it by any means when I've helped out some of the younger players. I was just wondering if theres anything people look back on and say 'I'd wish I'd known that'...

Hi everyone I was a bit inspired when I met Dan a few months ago to have a go at making my own table tennis videos. Only made a few so far but if you guys wouldn't mind checking it out its called TableTennis Smash (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCprxJWii6qo0RcyMHyCdFBg). Any advice welcome...

Recently I've been getting more and more frustrated when I play matches. Not at my opponent will always acknowledge when they've played well, but at the same time I know they're people I should beat! Despite all the training I do, it just seems to disappear in matches. For example I played...

Hi everyone, now I'm 6'0 foot tall and I'm still growing. I like to play really attacking if possible, but I often find that whilst my movements good I just simply keep up with those younger and shorter than me close to the table. Therefore often find myself n defence very quickly before I...
