from its late 19th century beginnings. Volume 11 covers the years
1981-1982.
This book provides detailed insights on four essential parts of the
game - technique, strategy, tactics, and the mental game. The aim
of this book is to create a different type of an artifact and go
beyond common basics.
This book's goal is to describe numerous principles of table
tennis and to show how to apply vast amount of table tennis
knowledge to construct player's most effective game using the
skills that the player has already mastered as well as to describe
many other skills that the player may choose to develop to take the
next step onto higher levels.
Table tennis (or ping-pong) is a popular activity for both youth
and adults. For those who want a better understanding of the game,
its rules, and tactics, this 1930 guide relates the history of the
game and how it has been played, as well as discussing various
strokes and how to play defense and offense. Even today, Cornelius
Schaad's guide provides the beginning table tennis player with a
great start to the game.
The true story of the amazing 1902 Ping Pong craze in America. A
perfume named Ping Pong? Ping Pong in half a dozen different
Broadway shows? Ping Pong cigarettes, a Ping Pong dance, Ping Pong
soap and Ping Pong Juice? It's starting to sound like Dr. Seuss
Twin babies named Ping and Pong? Ping Pong balls used to mail
letters? Ping Pong on a train? Ping Pong on the brain
Welcome to 1902 America. A new game with a funny name is
changing lives. There is no escaping the epidemic, spreading
uncontrollably from family to family, infiltrating every town and
hamlet in the nation.
Full of rich period detail, this lively romp examines who is
playing---from the famous to the farmer to the athlete---and the
effect of the madness on every sphere of daily living---fashion,
romance, humor, health and more. Tournament champions included the
day's top lawn tennis players.
And for the first time anywhere: Who really invented Ping
Pong?
Illustrated with over 400 photos, drawings and cartoons from the
1902 era.
Oh, a warning: You, too, will catch PING PONG FEVER.
But you will also catch yourself smiling a lot.
These comprehensive volumes cover the history of U.S. Table Tennis
from its late 19th century beginnings. Volume 12 covers the year
