Recent Testimonials / Feedback
“The impact the SAQ had on the players within Grantham Table Tennis Academy was huge. Those players that really started to focus on developing their off the table movement started to see the benefits as the translated to their practise and matchplay. It also allows the players to have really good focus from the start of the session as the dynamic flexibility gives them specific areas to develop rather than being too generic. I would highly recommend this to be used in all clubs”Natalie Green
