The Complete Game

Learn the importance of developing many skills

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I have asked many table tennis players about the most important aspects of the game.  I commonly hear responses such as…
 
“It’s all about footwork.  If my footwork improves, I’ll be able to return everything because I’ll be in position.”
 
“This game is 99% about serve and serve return.  If I can improve those aspects, I can really beat everyone at this club.”

Something to Think About...

Probably along your way to greatness, there have been players who have helped you.

Bible Verse of the Week

Psalm 139

 
 
 
 
In these 2 verses, the Psalmist is giving glory to God for life.  As I sit back and picture what God has done in my life, I am overflowing with gratitude to God for giving me many many many things - for creating me, for giving me life, for sustaining my life, for giving me Christ who saved me from my sins, for giving me the Holy Spirit that guides me, and for giving me the Bible in my own language that I can read and understand the truth.
 
Psalm 139:13-14
For You formed my inward parts;
