Good day coach alois, I just want ask if shadow play is still effective in training table tennis today. And also coach if it okay can you give me a time table or plan for trainings because I am starting to train players in a local highschool here in Quezon City, Philippines. Thanks!

Hi Jenaro,

Shadow play can be useful especially if you don't have  a hitting partner and early on in your development to get the stroke correct.

What level are the players that you are training?

Thanks for answering coach. My high school players is from intermediate to advance level. I'm also handling elementary students with zero knowledge but willing to learn. Please coach I need a time table for elementary players and my high school players. Thanks coach! God bless!

Take a look at this program that I was involved in developing a while ago.  Tops Table Tennis : table tennis in schools program.  There are a lot of lesson plans within that for both Elementary level and HIgh school.

Take a look through it and let me know if you have any questions.
