Abstract	Table tennis is regarded as one of the fastest sports in terms of game speed (Abernethy B.,1991). Players need to develop outstanding motor control (including coordination shuttle during services and returns) as well as make quick and responsive adaptations to continuously changing conditions in a repetitive motion. To help young and non-elite players develop to be elite players, it needs to recruit young players at an early age, usually start at age 5-8. However, the challenge of the coaches to develop technical and tactical skills in this age and the players unable to demonstrate adequate control in manipulative skills with the racket and understand to execute tactical strategies simultaneously. In Macau, most of the potential national team table tennis players promoted from local table tennis clubs. Noticeable are the training pedagogy mostly using drill and practice. Therefore, coach Leong (one of the national team) decide to simplify the game sense approach for his young players, create game-sense scenario after warm-up and integrated in general skill practice. There are several modified tasks, anticipatory skills and funny play (champions table, etc.) for players to think and make the right decisions to try out offensive strategies for individual and double-matches.
