I like tabletennis because on the one hand it's an individual sport but on the other hand it's also a team sport for me. You can talk while you're playing and you get to know lots of people, for example on turnaments. The atmosphere is unique and the fellowship and friendship is great!

For me tabletennis is the most fascinating sport! Once I read the following sentences (I can't remeber where) and in my opinion it suits very much:

Tabletennis is magic.
Why magic? Only members can understand the reason why a player pulls the ball of the defender into the net. Only the magicians themselves can understand the reason why the ball does not bounce straight forward at the setback but two metres beside the table.
Tabletennis is a duel. A duel of two magicians... Human beings ever have been impressed by combats and look for them to measure themselves with other people. By playing tabletennis just with their power of doing magic.
(Sorry, I couldn't translate it better, but I hope you'll understand it!)
