Who is the inventor of table tennis and what is his real name?

The appearance of table tennis is purely accidental. It was caused by two British youths playing. /kloc-At the end of 0/9, two young people in London went to a restaurant for dinner one day. When they were waiting for the waiter to deliver the meal, they felt bored, so they took the lid of the cigar in their hands and pulled off the cork at the same time. At the dinner table, they come and go, calling each other and calling each other. As a result, they were so fascinated that they even forgot to eat. As a result, this table tennis sport quickly evolved into a table tennis competition, which swept across London and formed a table tennis craze for a period of time. To commemorate the country that invented it, the first World Table Tennis Championship was held in London on 1926.

When people played table tennis in the early days, most of them liked to stick a layer of leather or cork on the wooden racket. The rubber racket was first invented and used by an Englishman, Goode. One day, after the game, Goode went to the drugstore to buy medicine on his way home. When the drugstore owner threw him the change, the coin fell on the rubber plate and bounced again. Goode's eyes suddenly lit up, so he bought a rubber plate from the drugstore owner and put it on his racket, carefully transforming his original racket. Later, Goode entered the competition with the world's first encapsulated racket and easily defeated all his opponents. Since then, the rubber racket has come out publicly.

The origin of table tennis name and others

In the history of sports, table tennis can be regarded as a young sport with a history of only 100 years. Compared with track and field (more than 2000 years), it is also a veritable junior.

1890, several naval officers stationed in India came across that playing tennis on a small table was quite exciting. Later, they used a small hollow ball instead of a solid ball with little elasticity and a wooden board instead of a racket to play this novel "tennis match" on the table, which is the origin of the name table tennis.

Soon after its appearance, table tennis became a popular sport. At the beginning of the 20th century, the United States began to produce complete sets of table tennis equipment. Initially, table tennis had other names, such as indoor tennis. Later, an American manufacturer created the new word "Ping-Pong" by the sound made when ping-pong was hit, and used it as the registered trademark of his patent. Ping-pong later became another official name of table tennis. When it spread to China, people created a new word "table tennis".

In Japanese, table tennis is called table tennis. Many words in table tennis come from tennis. The ball used for table tennis is called table tennis or table tennis, the table tennis table is called table tennis table, the table top is called court, the net in the middle is called net, and the shelf supporting the net is called net holder.

Table tennis originated in England. Europeans still call it "table tennis". It can be seen that table tennis developed from tennis. /kloc-At the end of 0/9, tennis was all the rage in Europe. However, due to the limitation of space and weather, some college students in Britain move tennis indoors, using the dining table as a table, books as a net, parchment as a racket and playing around the dining table.

At the beginning of the 20th century, table tennis flourished in Europe and Asia. 1926, an international table tennis invitational tournament was held in Berlin, Germany, which was later regarded as the first World Table Tennis Championships. At the same time, the International Table Tennis Federation was established.

The extensive development of table tennis has greatly improved rackets and balls. At first, the racket was a slightly processed board. Then someone put a layer of sheepskin on the racket. With the development of modern industry, Europeans put rubber with rubber particles on rackets. In the early 1950s, the Japanese invented the thick sponge racket. The original ball was a rubber ball similar to tennis. 1890, British athlete Gibb

Among all kinds of table tennis competitions, the most famous is the World Table Tennis Championships, which was held once a year at first, and changed to be held every two years after 1957.

10 In 904, Wang Daowu, the owner of a stationery store in Shanghai, bought10 sets of table tennis equipment from Japan. From then on, table tennis was introduced to China.

Table tennis originated in Britain in the late19th century, and then spread to the United States, Central Europe, Japan, China and South Korea. At first, table tennis was regarded as an entertainment by many people, but today, it has become one of the major sports in the world. Table tennis was recognized by the Olympic Games in 1988 and officially became a competition event, including men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles and women's doubles.

Table tennis began in England in the late19th century. At that time, some college students in Britain used the dining table as a table indoors, hung a thread as a net with books or two high-backed chairs, used balls made of cork or rubber, and used long-handled oval hollow rackets with parchment to beat the balls around the table. At first, this game was not called "table tennis", but called "Flim-Flam", also called "Goossie".

/kloc-around 0/890, Ames Gibb, a retired British cross-country runner, brought back a cello ball as a toy from the United States and came up with the idea of replacing cork balls and rubber balls with this kind of ball. At that time, it was called "ping-pong" because the small parchment racket used all over the world at that time made a "ping-pong" sound after hitting the ball and hitting the table, simulating its sound. Later it was also called table tennis (table tennis).

The birth of table tennis is closely related to the rapid development of tennis, which is actually a variant of tennis. After centuries of evolution and innovation, tennis has been loved by more and more people, and many businessmen have begun to pay attention to this popular sport. 1885 or so, some shrewd sporting goods manufacturers in Europe and America, in order to gain an advantage in the fierce commodity competition, moved tennis back from the outdoor to the indoor in view of the popularity of tennis in the upper class at that time, and boldly "invited" tennis from the ground to the dining table. Therefore, table tennis is also called "table tennis" in Britain and America. At that time, the racket used to play table tennis was similar to a small tennis racket, and the ball used was also a hard and light solid ball. 1890, an English engineer named Gibb put forward a novel idea of making hollow balls with celluloid. After continuous exploration and repeated development, five years later, this hollow ball miraculously appeared in people's lives. With the change of the ball quality, the racket has also changed a lot, from the initial small tennis racket to the wooden racket. These major changes directly led to the name table tennis. When the wooden racket collides with the celluloid ball, it makes a crisp sound-"ping", which is named table tennis according to this feature. In actual sports, the long handle of the racket brings great inconvenience to the players, so people change the long racket into a short one. Of course, table tennis was only a court sport in the early days, and it was widely circulated among nobles as an elegant entertainment in some European and American countries. Later, with the gradual improvement of this sport and the sharp increase of participants, this elegant sport rushed out of the hall, flowed into the people, and spread continuously, gradually becoming a favorite sport and Olympic event for people all over the world.
