Table Tennis is one of those sports I have been playing on and off since I was about six. It's a game I really enjoy and would consider myself quite good at. I spent many happy afternoons on the kitchen table batting a ball against the ball. My dad was always a good player and I often played with him. Now I'm older I don't tend to play that often, but every now and again I will dig out my bat and go for a game with one of my friends.

Several years ago I bought an outdoor table tennis table for my children. However it has proved a huge success with all the family. It is always a popular choice of activity when friends visit and many a nail biting competition has been held on our patio!
