Help my 64 years old mother get better at ping pong / table tennis
2Hey everyone. My table tennis table has been sitting in the garage for a while. I watched some Adam Bobrow Youtube videos recently and that inspired me to take out the table and play a few games.
I started playing since quite young. I mainly played tennis growing up and I've only had a ping pong table at home for a few years in my life, so I'm not very good, but I guess I can beat most people who don't play.
My mum played even less, and you can see she's very unfamiliar with the bat. She is also a bit older now so she can't see the ball very well. She's had surgery on her eyes before, plus the ping pong ball moves way too quickly. It was also getting dark.
Taking all of this into consideration, however, you can see she still managed to hit a few rallies. If you have any tips for her, feel free to comment here, I'll make sure she gets the message. You can see her smiling after a few rallies, so I'm sure she secretly enjoys the game!
