Dream to master Table Tennis ? An untold story
28th July, 1999:
Hello everyone, my name is Abhishek Sharma and today is my 6th birthday. I aspire to become a star, a master or what I can say is a legend in the game of table tennis. On my 6th birthday, my parents have gifted me a brand new racket for the game, but with the racket the thing which is gifted is hope, and this hope is bound to take me a long distance.
When I was just 3 years old, I tried playing table tennis with my uncle who is an expert of the game. No prizes for guessing that it was not an actual match, we guys were just playing for fun. Now he has decided to coach me and evolve me into a good player of the game. My uncle, who is also my coach is 36 years old and his name is Mr. Ayush Mehta. He hails from Gujarat where table tennis is not much famous, for that reason he couldn?t take the sport as a profession but still has his heart with it.
I have currently begun my training at the school level. Every day (except for Tuesdays, Saturdays and Sundays) from 12.30 PM to 3 PM we guys (all those who have chosen to be a part of the TT campaign) have practice sessions for the game. We are still at the learning level and are primarily being asked to just maintain some rallies. No smashes, no spins and no cross serves, just pure rallies is what our school coach asks us to do. The name of our school coach is Mr. Prathamesh Dahanukar and he is from Nagpur, a city from Maharashtra. Our school, St. Peter?s High School, Thane hired him as a coach six months back and all the students are pretty happy with him after attending the only session he has held so far. Hardcore training begins from 1st August, 1999.
Now that I have two coaches, Mr. Mehta who helps me with the game outside at the school and Prathamesh Sir who is our school coach, I seriously concentrate on the game.
With just three days left for the coaching to begin, I am really excited to see that what?s in store for us.
