Every sport around the world is always on the lookout for new players, and table tennis in the USA is no exception. USATT numbers have been fairly static over the last couple of decades - with the current USATT member list coming in at around 7500 members or so, according to my memory. If every player could just bring in one friend to the USATT clan every year, the number of members would explode upwards.
Or would they? I'm not so sure they would, due to one important issue - player retention. Unless we can hang on to the new ping-pong players and keep them playing, nothing much will happen. How can we do that? I have a few thoughts on the subject. |
