Why it works

Many parks, swimming pools and housing estates have a table tennis table, and the only thing missing is the bats. These are from STIGA, the leading Swedish brand, with five-ply wood and approved rubber, nothing like the plastic ones from bargain shops. As there are two, play starts from the first minute.

Our verdict

Worth it if you know they have a table to hand. If not, a flying disc or a ball can be used anywhere.

They will like it if

  • there is a table at the park, the school or the pool
  • they have someone to play with
  • they like racket sports

Bear in mind

  • with no table nearby they are no use at all
  • the rubbers are ruined if they are left in the sun or get wet
  • no case included

What's in the box

  • 2 bats in the Cybershape shape
  • 3 balls
  • 5-ply wood
  • ITTF-approved rubber, 1.6 mm sponge
