We Hosted the 2017 USATT National Team Trials
We were extremely proud to host the 2017 USATT National Team Trials, which brought the top U.S. players to compete in our outstanding facility in the Triangle area of NC from March 23rd through March 26th! With the support of sponsors USATT and Greater Raleigh Sports Alliance (GRSA) and Butterfly, we provided a high quality experience for players, and they provided amazing competition for spectators! The fast-paced action was live streamed on Friday through Sunday, and if you didn’t catch all the great live video, you can still access it on the Triangle Table Tennis YouTube channel, the USATT webpage for the event and the Butterfly webpage for the event.

The Google Sheets image takes you to a spreadsheet that gives the settings for each drill. While these won’t be the exact settings for the Control Panel on your robot, they will give you an idea of where to start, and you’ll need to adjust from there. At the bottom, we’ve included the ranges and defaults for the setting on a Prime so you can compare these to the ranges and defaults on your own robot. In general, default settings should give you a similar ball regardless of what model you have. If a drill has a change of speed, spin, or trajectory, you will be unable to replicate that drill on a Basic or Start model.
