Why China so good at table tennis?

[@DailyBreakClear]

its easy to win a world champion but its very hard to win a national title - malong

[@ITTCcup]

Parabéns pelo vídeo, principalmente quando tem legenda em português...todos seus vídeos deveriam ter, povo Brasileiro gosta muito desse esporte também.

1 ping pong table for 7 Chinese people? This is absolutely not true. There are still very few table tennis tables in China.It's still hard to find free public table tennis tables to play at.

What do you mean by Hao Shuai is in the National Team B only? His highest ranking is number 7 and he has been in Nation Team A for more than 17 years (since year 2000, not sure if he retires at 2017)

The world tournament has been held since 1926. China won gold 149 times, Hungary won 68, Japan won 48. Sweden men last won in 2000 and singapore women last won in 2010. Therefore it is possible to win over China. But in order to do it consistently, that is a different story all together. I think, more foreigners need to play and train in the Chinese super league. The exposure will only help strengthen the game. It helps that Table Tennis is a national game in China. Just like football in Brazil or basketball in the USA.

[@BillyBoucher-ql3pw]

Not just basketball. America has pro hockey, baseball, wrestling, American football, football, and even a lacrosse league.

High population doesn't guarantee success, most of the highly populated countries ranked at the bottom of Olympic medal table. Accumulated knowledge, training method, and work culture are what determine success. (In some sports, genetic is also a factor, e.g. track & field)

[@danieltheunissen4790]

china has a high population who plays table tennis not just a high population, work culture is also very different but this is because table tennis is seen as an actual good sport to go pro in

[@leepinsoo7860]

Adoring crowd, Fame, superior sparring partners, immersive environment n total commitment make for sterling results.! 🤩👏

[@pahefaux8328]

reasons from video : -China has a lot of table tennis players (ok but why are they attracted to table tennis and not to another sport ? India is high populated too and has not same good quantities/results) -Chinese people love this sport very much (because it's on TV / everywhere but why ? ) -Best coaches in the world (because they are former world champions because they are good) -Best table tennis partners in the world (because 2nd rank players are good) In my humble opinion, all these reasons listed are mostly consequences and continues to help China keeping its level in a virtuous (double ;-) ) circle . It would be interesting to find out why/how China has become N1 compared to former situation when Europe was N1 in 1930ies (Barna rules !) .. the inital reasons.

@@ukaszrokita4906 The ITTF's rule change aims to restrict the Chinese team, not the European team. In China, the second most popular sport is football, and table tennis is only the third. The Chinese government is very supportive of table tennis, which is indeed one of the reasons why Chinese table tennis can be successful.

They trained since they were 5 years old 6-8 hours a day. In any profession when u live to train to compete, u be good also not just in table tennis.

[@pomodoro385]

That can't be the reason. Many Asian and some European countries start from similar age with long hours too, particularly Koreans and Japanese, yet they don't even come close. Whereas in badminton, you can see China losing. There's something abt TT that China has a grip on.

[@BibleExposition2022]

The commie China owns their players, the Korean & Japanese are not. They play on their own time and pay their own way and may be get pick up when they win in competitions.

[@pomodoro385]

@@BibleExposition2022 Vietnam and many former commie states have the same system too, why are they so poor in TT and also other sports? Regardless the system, most top players all start young with systemic training, including Europeans. Timo started at 4.

[@pingspiritpingspirit4099]

L'origine est que ce sport ne coûtait pas cher pour l'appareil politique de l'époque. (encore aujourd'hui) Ensuite, comme vous le dites très bien dans cette vidéo, il y a le nombre de joueurs et le fait que ce sport est aimé en Chine. Des champions du monde qui deviennent des entraîneurs... Pour ce qui est des clones, c'est vrai, sauf pour un joueur... JAN OVE WALDNER ;) Attention, le Basket et le football sont de plus en plus aimés aussi. Petite question... Auriez-vous des titres de films à me donner ?

On earth threa are no table tennis player in other countries who can compete with chinese players,,maybe china has to find competitors on other planets

[@mrsith1402]

1.5 billion people + full time coaching for talented players

[@Benlo]

Huge population is definitely a factor, having more people who play, generating more talented players. What more I think is the Chinese government's support for the sport, everything is paid for and taken care off by the government. In a way the chinese team feel more like trained army soldiers than athletes, the way they behave and speak, and the diciplinary they have. There are exceptions of course. When emotions take over, like Zhang Jike, or the more recent Wang chuqin incident.

[@pomodoro385]

In many countries, sports are state-funded but it didn't yield as great a success. If you look back decades ago when China was poor, they were already winning titles.
