How do I practice spin at home without a table tennis table? because I only get to play 3 - 4 times a week at sports center.

Hi David,

You can spin the ball and set yourself some tasks such as getting the ball to come back towards you on the floor.  Or you can get the ball to curve on the floor in different directions.

You can also spin eh ball into a wall and then spin it again and again.
