Training & Competition Ratio

Training

Esi Darap Asked 9 years ago

Hi coach, I am a social player trying to get serious into tt. I am fortunate to have a few tt clubs around my house, which together have lots of training sessions and competitions. I am able to play about 2-3 sessions (2 hours per session) per week. In your opinion, what is the right balance between training and competition?

e.g. 70% training 30% competition, 50% training 50% competition

Hi Esi,

The percentages will depend on what stage of development you are at. If you are really close to playing a big competition, then you should increase the amount of games that you play. If you are trying to develop your skills then focus more on training.
