Table Tennis at age of 16

Boran Deniz Asked 7 years ago

Hello My Name is Boran, I live in Austria and I have a question: I really like Table Tennis and I wanna join in the next weeks a Table Tennis club and my question is: Can I become a professional Table Tennis Player? I love watching the Olympics and I want to see me there too. I would love to make my family proud of me. I would love to hear my mom saying: look my son is at the olympics and he's playing right now. 

Thank you for your answer and sorry for my English Skills. (Age 16)

Hi Boran,

It is difficult to reach the highest level if you re starting at 16 but nothing is impossible.

The most important thing is to work hard do your best and see where you can get to.

Make sure you get to your club and see what they have to offer.  You will see the abilities of the other players there.
