Abstract | ||||
Table tennis has evolved greatly during the last decade of the twentieth century and the third millennium opens up new horizons for this evolution through investing modern technologies that can be applied to help developing training programs that aim at higher levels of performance to elevate the physical, technical and tactical levels of table tennis players to the world class level. The current research aimed at designing specific tests to measure the ability of counter-attack in table tennis juniors less than (18) years using the Table Tennis Robot and identifying standardized levels and percentiles for these tests. The researcher used the descriptive (survey) approach on a sample of (112) junior table tennis players. Most important findings of this study are the design of theses tests besides deriving their standardized levels and percentiles. | ||||
