Practice Partner in East area Singapore

[olive-nguyen]

I'm looking for a practice partner in Singapore Pasir Ris Tampines area. Want to improve quickly and want to find someone of a level of play higher than me to learn, practice and adjust my game for improvement. I will go to Tampines Hub table tennis area about every Friday after school, which ends at 2.30 as I have CCA on that day, and would take the bus to Tampines Hub, usually about 20-25 mins plus bus wait. Hence likely playing from 3pm to 5.45pm daily. I will try to settle the booking of the tables accordingly and will have discounts being a student (desperately waiting to turn 15 to get SingPass).
If anyone is interested and able to do so, please reply to this message. I know such chances are unlikely, but I will give it a shot, as there is no harm trying.

everyone wants to play with someone who is better than them.
so even your future practice partner thinks the same, they will not want to practice with you.

this is were trade off is required, either use money or something in return for the other person.
you should be speaking to Singaporean table tennis communities, not much Singaporeans on TTD

I dont know much if anything about the table tennis community in Singapore. They all say, "get a coach" "if no coach no NSG".

I guess money makes the world go round. Currently saving up to go for coaching. In the meantime I guess I'll play with my schoolmates and the wall.

I knew a guy that played at TT vogue and liked it, but that was green line, over by Jurong east, out that way, so it might not be best for you.

Yeah that's practically the other side of SG. It's more difficult to find in East SG.

Have you tried searching using apps such as Meetup or Reclub.

A lot of games (even some high level ones) are being organised using both apps. Some are held in paid clubs while most are held in Sports Hall.

Hi, I’m an adult beginner and started playing TT since Aug last year. I am playing regularly with friends at Tampines Hub on Fridays. Not considering myself as good as I am still learning.
You sound like you are of pretty good level. I probably can’t match up with yours 😅…hope you can find your ideal practising partner soon.

Hi, I’m an adult beginner and started playing TT since Aug last year. I am playing regularly with 2 regular friends at Tampines Hub on Fridays from 6pm to 8pm. Not considering myself as good as I am still learning.

Maybe you can start off with a brief intro like what’s your level? Your expectations of a practising partner since you say you want to find someone of a level of play higher than you? Are you from the school team?
You also mentioned desperately waiting to turn 15, are you 13 or 14?
Just to understand more and I’m looking for someone to play as I do TT for leisure only.

Wow, a godsend.

I'm also quite a beginner, having only been playing more seriously since July last year.

Not necessarily a practicing partner needing to be a level higher than me, but I want to play with someone who is keen on improving.

I'm not from a school team, in fact my school does not have a school team.

About turning 15, it's about Singpass minimum age. Because its very inconvenient to keep asking my parents to help me book.

I'm not sure I can play from 6-8 pm on a Friday. If it can't be sorted out on a Friday are you keen to play on a Monday afternoons or someday in a weekend.

I am sure there are easier ways for you to get the information than asking on TTD. (unless your idea is asking us to google for you )

Hopefully there is one close to where you stay.

Haha I am really beginner type while my friends are better player. I learn to play through my friends and through YouTube. So are you taking classes or learn on your own?

Weekends for me is no playing day due to family stuffs…I am turning 50 😅…btw my name is Ernest, what’s yours?
I can play on weekdays from 6pm onwards and preferably on Fridays due to my work end on time on Fridays in compare to other days.

Thanks for the suggestions but they are in West of Singapore it isn't excessive for me. I have actually searched h and seen both, and are out of hand, therefore approaching this forum for people who have other ideas.

I will try to see if I can stay in oth for a longer time on Fridays.

You can call me Theo, I'm 14 from Ngee Ann Secondary.

Same with learning, mostly by watching YouTube videos and approaching this forum.

Hope to see you soon!
