Can I learn to play TT in about a year?

Hi Arif,
You can learn Table Tennis in a week but then it is just a process of how much you learn about the game. It is a game that you can always improve on. IN a year you can become proficient at all of the basic strokes.
To be a National level player usually takes 10 years.

Oh Dear! I have been playing for a year and a 3/8 and i'm still terrible!!!!! In everything! Well, my topspins not all that bad but still!!!! OH DEAR, OH DEAR oh dear.
Hi Jonathan,
it's hard to improve without a proper table tennis bat. Now you have a good beginner bat it will really help you. It will seem quite fast compared to your old bat so you need to focus on the consistency of your strokes. Try to practice getting 10 counterhits on in a row. Once you can do that, start to increase the number.
It's also great you are playing at Coburg. It's a great club and that will help you gain a lot of experience.
Keep training and it will start to come together.
