Table Tennis stats to track
The four stats that actually matter for table tennis players are: ELO rating, win/loss record, matches played, and head-to-head against your most frequent opponents. Volley tracks all four automatically. Other stats (set differential, point differential, average match duration) are interesting but less actionable.
Why this matters for table tennis players
There's a difference between tracking stats for self-improvement and tracking them for bragging rights. The good news is the same data feeds both. Score every match in a single app and the numbers are there when you need them.
How Volley tracks this automatically
Volley tracks this automatically. Score every match in the app and the relevant stats update in real time. No spreadsheets, no manual entry, no missed matches. Free on iOS and Android.
Tips for improving
If your stats are stagnating, the problem is usually opponent variety, not technique. Most players plateau because they've found a comfort zone — same group, same skill level, same outcomes. Mix in matches against stronger players and the numbers start moving again.
