Dear Coach,
I got a table tennis board today. I've been looking through the videos and had trouble deciding which one to learn first. This my first time playing table tennis. So I've decided to ask you.

Hi Abby,
I think the best place to start is the Strokes & Technique page. Work your way down the page and see what you are competent at. Having good basic strokes is really important.

#33 - Defending with the Block
One thing you can be sure of is that every top player will be able to keep the ball on the table with a solid block when under pressure. It seems that this is a pre-requisite to becoming a good player. That's why in this training session we focus on improving your block. If you can absorb your opponent's attack you will be in a good position to win a match against them.
