Short Activity !!!
"PingPong Simpson Samson"
All the Students must participate!
The facilitator will call out either "Simpson" or
"Samson," and participants must respond with a
specific action:
"Simpson": Mimic a forehand stroke (swing with their
dominant hand as if hitting the ball).
"Samson": Mimic a backhand stroke (swing with their
non-dominant hand).
If someone does the wrong action or hesitates, they’re
out for the round or can do a silly challenge to rejoin
the game (sing/dance)
Learning Objectives
At theend of the lesson Student’s will,
• Recall the origin and history of Table Tennis and its
evolution into the sport it is today;
• Explain how different types of shots are executed
and the situations in which each shot is most
effective;
• Demonstrate the correct technique for executing
basic shots, such as the forehand drive and
backhand block, during practice;

exercises to enhance key fitness components.
Learnings

BIG IDEA
The firstpaddle
was the back of
a cigar box, and
the first net was
a stack of books.
Surprisingly the
first ball was a
champagne
cork.
Learnings

for table tennis and associated
equipment. The name ping- pong

Learnings
It may surprisemany people to
hear that table tennis can be a
very physically demanding sport.
Anaerobic fitness is needed
during strenuous rallies in which
rapid movements are repeated in
a short time period, while a good
level of aerobic fitness is
required to keep up the intensity
over long match or several
matches during a day.
What is TABLE TENNIS?
BACKSPIN
Backspin is appliedby
hitting through and under
the ball with the lower
part of the bat angled
ahead of the upper
section. The aim is to
make the ball slow down
and “die” (bounce as little
as possible) on contact with
the
table.
17.
FOREHAND SMASH
This is
one
devastating
ofthe
most
shots
in
any
player’s armory, in which
the ball is hit at high
speed. As well asadding
topspin, the player can
conceal in which direction
the ball will
travel by flicking his or her
wrist to direct the ball
across the table.
18.
BACKHAND TOPSPIN
The basictechnique is
the reverse of the backspin
shot: the bat is slanted so
that the top is further
ahead of the player than
the bottom.
Topspin stops the ball
from rising too high into
the air. Instead it dips
quickly onto the receiver’s
side and has a low bounce,
making it harder to return.

Short Sprints
5 tipsto improve your Table Tennis
Fitness and train like an Athlete!
Use lots of jumping
and bounding
movements.
Train Laterally

Develop Arm Speed
22.
Short Sprints
Sprinting improvesstrength, power and limb
speed, which are all vital for table tennis. It
also helps to build lean muscle mass, while
reducing body fat and working the anaerobic
system.
23.
Train
Laterally
Table tennis ismainly a lateral movement
game (meaning the main directions of
movements are side to side). So, “you
become how you train”. A lot of your table
tennis fitness training needs to be made up
of lateral movements, such as lateral
jumping.
24.
Use lots ofjumping and
bounding movements.
Add jumping exercises to your fitness
programme, such as tuck jumps. These are
great for improving your dynamic power
and agility.
Jumping on and off boxes is another way to
advance your jumping training and increase
explosive power.
25.
Develop Arm Speed
Playersneed fast acceleration in the
shoulder, elbow and wrist.
Resistance training bands are great for
training arm speed and acceleration because
they allow the players to mimic the
movements of stroke and target the specific
muscle required to execute the shot.
26.
Train Quick
General conditioningexercises: such as
press ups, sit ups, lunges, squats are all
great for table tennis.
However, the emphasis should be on speed,
quickness and explosiveness, rather than
simply good technique of exercise.
27.
Mental preparation
• Themental aspects of table tennis play an important role in
overall profile of a performer so it is important to develop
the whole player. This psychological element is possibly the
single most difficult factor for coaches, teachers and
performers to control and improve.
• Most players and teachers/coaches do regard the
psychological side of playing table tennis as important,
(hence such statements as “It’s all in the head” or “You’ve
got to get psyched up for this one”) and there are a wide
range of psychological techniques that can be employed to
boost performance both in training an within the competition
cycle in the pre, during and post phase.
