Hello my name is Christopher and i live in Germany.

I'm 15 and currently in a club. I've been playing table tennis for about a year now, and I wish that I could become a pro, but I'm wondering if it is too late for me.

What should I do?

Hi Christopher,

It is great that you are enjoying the game.  To become a professional player you need to just work really hard from here.  Do you find that you are picking skills up easily and doing well in your club?

Putting in good quality hours on the table is the key.  How many hours a week are you playing?

What should you do when you get forced back from the table? Should you just close your eyes and try and smash the ball back? Should you lob the ball back and try and stay in the point? This week in our master class we discuss your options and when to use the lob, chop or counter attack.
