Sometimes its hard to get such a good look at the past of our great sport, so over the past few months, I have made it my duty to find the best photos from our sport over the past 30 years. here are some I'd like to share.
The Great Wall Rong Guotuan, Li Furong, Zhuang Zedong 1986 Asian Cup, won by Wei Qingguang (pictured) He Zhiwen, when he still played for China He Zhili, the chinese ex-patriot who in 87, won the women's singles gold in New Delhi, as well as three ATTC titles (for China) and one for Japan, where she beat Deng Yaping in the final (one of Deng's hand full of losses) The great Jiang Jialiang, twice in a row a winner of the WTTC Chen Jing, the first Olympian Wei Qingguang and Chen Longcan Deng Yaping, Chen Jing, Qiao Hong Wei Qingguang found immense success after leaving China, being one of Japan's most dominant players, and after retiring a valued coach. Even Chen Longcan played in the JTTL for awhile, though by this time in the very early 90s, his career had finally come to a close.

Invincibility lies in the Defense, the possibility of victory lies in the Attack.

True - but it was Zedong who was at a crossroads and was the one who made the decision whether to speak with an American or not... |

Check out this one
http://oldphotosjapan.com/en/photos/321/practicing-table-tennis Back in 1935 they were already using J-Pen shaped paddles! this means that shape is older than period after WWII when supposedly TT became more popular in the East after USA/UK influence has increased there significantly. |

Um, that's not right- From L to R- Zhuang Zedong, ZHANG XIELIN, Rong Guotuan, Li Furong, XU YINSHENG Xi Enting came much later. This is the 1961 SC winning team.

My Chinese coach told me that this handsome young man Wang Tao has became a Major General of the Liberation Army and is still currently active with the Army's Team 81 where Wang Hao was trained as a junior. By the way LGL also came from Team 81. |

In '85 he partnered Fan Changmao to the semi-final (and made the last 16 of the singles). In '87 he partnered Jiang Jialiang to the QF, and He Zhili (that years women's world champion) in the Mixed, where they also made the QF. I guess he left China, along with lots of others, when he lost his place in the National squad but was free to play abroad.
