0 9

New Delhi: The Indian table tennis team for the Paris Olympics 2024 underwent a performance analytics camp in Bengaluru to focus on the rally analysis for the players. The camp featured prominent players Achanta Sharath Kamal, Harmeet Desai, Manav Thakker, Manika Batra, Archana Kamath, and Sreeja Akula alongside reserve players G. Sathiyan and Ayhika Mukherjee.

The camp, organised by Stupa Sports Analytics, focused on articulating strategies on how to play against the world’s best players through performance analytics, rally analysis, and smart AI-solutions for both players and coaching staff and was held in association with the Table Tennis Federation of India (TTFI) and approved by the Sports Authority of India (SAI) for both the Indian table tennis men’s and women’s teams.

The camp, which was held from June 7-16, marked a significant preparatory phase as the Indian table tennis team prepares for the 2024 Paris Olympics. “Qualifying for Paris through the World Rankings is a significant milestone for India, placing us among the top 16 teams globally, a position we aim to sustain consistently,” Massimo Constantini, Head Coach of the Indian Table Tennis Team said.

“Metrics on ball contact, player movement, and shot timing have greatly enhanced our preparation and performance discussions. This analytical support is crucial in training camps, just like physiotherapy and fitness regimes,” he added.

The Paris Olympics are set to start from July 26, 2024, with table tennis matches starting from July 27. The women’s and men’s singles gold medal matches are slated for August 3 and 4, respectively. Notably, this will be 41-year-old Sharath Kamal’s fifth and final Olympics appearance.

This is also the first time in history of Indian table tennis that the country will have a representation in the team events at the Olympics.
