Hi Karl,

Hitting against a wall or putting one side of the table into the playback mode is often good to improve your coordination and hitting skills.  You can also improve your serving skills quite easily by yourself.  Serving is about doing lots of times and experimenting with different types of serves, contacts and speeds.

However, you need to get your friends more interested in the great game.  Keep beating them and they will soon want to get better.  Maybe organise a competition amongst your friends.  Table Tennis is a game where you need the help of others to really improve.  Get them involved.  Maybe show them some great action of table tennis so they can see what a great game it is to play.

Good luck with it Karl.
