Brief History of Table Tennis   

Table Tennis or "Ping Pong" was developed in England in the late 19 ^th  Century, when upper class families began using their dinner tables as miniature tennis courts. Originally the game was called many names such as "Wiff Waff' , gossamer and "flim flam". Eventually the term "ping-pong"  was settled upon and sold to the Parker Brothers ("History of Table Tennis"). This sale would forever change the game we all know and love. The game evolved just before the world war. Players began using spherical balls and rackets to play. The increased game spread throughout Europe. During the war English officers posted in various Asian Countries introduced the game to the Asians.
