A series of rehabilitation training is conducted by the department of special physical training of Dnipro State University of Internal Affairs with the active support of the leadership of the institution.
Weekly classes for military veterans are held under the guidance of trainers from among specialists in adaptive physical culture. Participants gradually improve their playing technique, practice the accuracy of serves, endurance and development of coordination of movements. Playing tennis contributes not only to physical rehabilitation, but also to active social interaction, psychological support and a sense of a single community.
Special attention is paid to the adaptation of exercises to the needs of each participant: modified approaches to serves and movement are used, which allows everyone to feel progress regardless of physical capabilities. During trainings, special technical devices for controlling the rebound of the ball and exercises for coordination are also used, which help develop speed of reaction and accuracy.
Table tennis training is not just a sport, but also an important component of rehabilitation and return to active life for the defenders of Ukraine.
