LOW COST TEACHING AID – TABLE TENNIS [CONTROL OF THE BALL]

Dear Children, Table Tennis is a highly technical sport. If you fail to master the fundamental techniques of the game, you are likely to seriously disadvantage yourself, as you attempt to improve your level of play and move up to a higher level. Good technique is efficient.A teaching aid was made out of waste plastic tubes/materials to train Table tennis players in all levels of proficiency (Novice, Beginners/ Inter-mediate/Advanced). This tool is fixed above the table tennis net on two plastic poles. The height of this tool may be adjusted to suit different levels of play and can be used to demonstrate perfect service, forehand drive, backhand drive, backhand push and forehand push, return of serve and match play. Mastering a solid technique can give you more power, more spin, more control, faster movement and quicker strokes. It adds that extra level of ‘quality’ to your game. There are many reasons we perform drills in our table tennis practice and drills have a number of benefits. For starters, they are extremely versatile. There are drills to work on your movement, accuracy, speed, power, consistency, technique, timing, and so on. In this sense, most aspects of table tennis can be practiced in some form under the umbrella term of “drills”.

LOW COST TEACHING AID – TABLE TENNIS [ROTATION OF THE BALL]

Dear Students, Strategic teaching is about supporting the players in the preparation (development), implementation, and monitoring (and follow-up) of their individual strategic action plans. This involves leading the training practice in the best way. This low cost teaching aid will ace your technique part mainly supporting the rotation of the ball. The aim is to maximize the playing strength and competitive edge of the players. Good development progress is a lot about the attitude of learning and improvement. They should realize that they do not have a fixed, static level of talent or ball sense inside. We want them to realize that they have to try it for themselves and learn from their own failures. Any mistake or failure is a step forward.

CONCEPT OF MAGNUS EFFECT # SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES BEHIND SPORTS

Dear Children, The Magnus effect is an observable phenomenon that is commonly associated with a spinning object moving through a fluid. The Magnus effect is dependent on the speed of rotation. Magnus effect occurs on spinning objects that are spherical or cylindrical. The effect that we can observe is that the moving spinning object bends away from the intended direction of travel. The spin of the object alters the airflow around the body and due to the conservation of momentum, it causes the Magnus effect.

CONCEPT OF NON-UNIFORM CIRCULAR MOTION # SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES BEHIND SPORTS

Dear Children, In non-uniform circular motion, an object’s motion is along a circle, but the object’s speed is not constant. In particular, the object’s velocity vector is always tangent to the circle and speed and angular speed of the object are not constant. In Discus, throw/Hammer throw, the object (discus/hammer) moves tangential to the circle described by the movement of arms. The tangential acceleration propels the discus/hammer forward to cover maximum distance.

CONCEPT OF CONSERVATION OF ANGULAR MOMENTUM # SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES BEHIND SPORTS

Dear Students, Angular momentum depends on the rotational velocity of an object, but also its rotational inertia. When an object changes its shape (rotational inertia), its angular velocity will also change if there is no external torque. Angular momentum of a system is conserved as long as there is no net external torque acting on the system.

CONCEPT OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY # SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES BEHIND SPORTS

Dear students, The Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, just transformed into a different type of energy that is no longer useful. In a closed system, energy cannot be gained or lost. In most sporting situations, although it will seem like energy is lost or gained, what you will find is that the energy changes from one type to another.
