Does Age matters in TT

Varshan R Y Asked 11 years ago

Hi,

I am from India and i am 30, i am passionate about playing Table Tennis can i start practicing now and become a tournament player? If yes then what are the things i need to know ? I have always read that top players started early, is there any age restrictions for top tournaments ?

Hi Varshan,

The answer is yes you can become a tournament player.  It is more difficult for an older starter to reach the highest level in the game but you can certainly improve and get to a high level.

There are not restrictions on age.  In fact there are a lot of Veterans tournaments now which is an area you may want to get into as well.

The thing that you need to do then is find time to train.
