After attaining the age of 80 years, we see many older people either relaxing at home or spending their morning or evening time in slow walks or chatting with their friends in one corner of parks. Some of them read newspapers and books. But, there are few, who enjoy playing sports leisurely.
Magzmumbai noticed two such Table Tennis lovers, who regularly play this game daily morning at MCF Sports Club, Borivali , West. Mr. Harsh Basantani 80 and Ms. Mrudula Udeshi 83, have been playing together and enjoying this game for the past 15 years. They carry extra balls and continue with their rallies. In between, they take a short break to pick up the balls on either side without the help of markers.
With their enthusiasm to play daily, they have set an ideal example of fitness @ 80 . They don’t compete with each other. Their motto is to be fit and enjoy the sport at this age.
