ABSTRACT:
A paddle ball racquet for a slow paced table tennis game is herein disclosed. The racquet is modified to eliminate the advantage of the power player by imparting flex or articulation between the racquet handle and the paddle surface. The design parameters of the racquet prevents accurate return of the game ball if the racquet speed exceeds certain empirically determined limits. Accordingly, the racquet handicaps the power hitter and thereby emphasizes accuracy in shot placement. The racquet of this invention can be used in conventional table tennis; or, in conjunction with a unique table tennis layout designed for accurate shot placement.
