When coaching 5-6 year old kids, about 50% of your time should be on fun drills and 50% of your time should be on structured training.
When coaching more serious players, about 5% of your time should be on fun drill and 95% of your time should be on structured training.
Unless they are developing bad habits, fun drills can also be a means of improvement by adding more dexterity and more concentration!
Overplaying!
In 2016, I was selected as a US National Team Coach. Throughout 2016, as I talked with many national team players, one main topic continued to rise to the surface – OVERPLAYING!

In table tennis training, there are times when multiball training is absolutely necessary and there are times when it is over-used. In this short article, I’m going to give you some advice on when to use it or when not use it.
Simplifying for Beginners
For complete beginners who have never played before, sometimes using a robot or multiball is easier because it allows more time between balls. As soon as the beginner is able to make contact with the ball, I highly recommending transitioning to single ball instead of multi-ball.
