A very important point we should not forget:

More than 50% of all players in lower classes are older than 30 years. Long pimples etc. make is possible for them to win against clearly younger player. This is only possible in table-tennis. No other popular sport can offer this. But exactly this will be destroyed. The result will be:

1. Many older player will stop playing table-tennis.
2. The leading persons of our table-tennis-clubs are nearly exclusively older player. We will miss them, if they go.
3. And we will miss our coaches and after this our young players.

Quo vadis table-tennis?

Best wishes
