Smash camp in Spain with Malte Möregårdh
Nordic Table Tennis
Welcome to the best table tennis experience of the spring! Smash Coaching,
in collaboration with Nordic Table Tennis, is organizing this spring’s most exciting table tennis camp, where you can combine a week-long vacation at a hotel right by the sea with world-class table tennis training! Two of the four Smash coaches (Malte Möregårdh and Marcus Sjöberg) will serve as the head coaches at the camp.
Over 7 days (5 training days) in April/May, motivated table tennis players will gather in Spain to train and develop together. National team coach Marcus Sjöberg and Malte Möregårdh—who serves as a personal trainer to his brother (Truls Möregårdh)—are responsible for making this the best and most rewarding camp of the spring. While it will be a top-class table tennis camp, the sun, swimming, and warm weather—combined with great food—will make this experience your best table tennis memory yet!
Guardamar is a small, charming coastal town located about 3.5 mil south of Alicante Airport. The town has about 20,000 residents, and the hotel is situated right on the incredibly beautiful, long beach and close to both the town center and the boardwalk.
Our goal for the camp is to ensure it’s of the very highest quality, and regardless of your skill level, you’ll get the most out of this camp. In addition, there will be plenty of time for you to enjoy fun activities together. No matter your skill level, we’ll make sure everyone has a truly great week of training and a fantastic experience!
