About the sessions
We welcome every junior player (age 5-16), regardless of playing skills to join our sessions, whatever your goals are - learning the basics or improving your skills further.
These sessions are great for beginners: we offer a structured and fun-oriented introduction to table tennis, including all the fundamental skills, techniques and elements of the game. We also welcome intermediate-level players with prior table tennis club experience by offering them the opportunity to improve their game and help them reach their competitive goals. The program is led by Ferenc Horvath, our Table Tennis England licensed head coach.
The session structure is based on a well-established format with the following sections:Â
Warm-up off the table (10 min)Â
Warm-up at the table - fundamental shots (30 min)
Break (5 min)Â
Fun-based games and exercises at the table (20 min)Â
Table tennis-related core/cardio/coordination drills and games (off-table) (10 min)Â
Stretching and session evaluation (5 min)Â
