Stay upright
Clear a practice floor without turning every collection break into another round of bending. The handle brings the pickup head to the balls, rather than the other way around.
Made for the pickup between sets
Ball picker for table tennis practice.
Keep your robot and multi-ball sessions moving with a hand-crafted picker that collects balls from the floor, including the ones under the table.
$64.50 Includes two balls, a wall hanger and spare strings.
The session killer
Practice stops when pickup takes over.
Robot drills and multi-ball sessions are built on repetitions. When the floor fills with balls, the routine usually breaks: bend down, chase balls under the table, carry a small handful back, then try to find your rhythm again. It is a small interruption that repeats all session long.
MyPingPongBuddy gives that part of practice one job. Press the stringed head over a ball, let it pass into the collection net, and keep moving around the floor. When the net is full enough for your next round, flip the picker into a bucket or back toward the robot.
Reach the hard ones
Balls do not politely stop in the middle of the floor. The picker is especially useful around table legs, robots and barriers where reaching by hand is awkward.
Reset the next drill faster
Collect a group, unload, and get back to the next feed. Less scattered cleanup means less time between the work you actually came to do.
A simple pickup routine
Press. Collect. Flip. Keep practicing.
- PressSet the head over a ball and press down. The elastic strings flex to let it through.
- CollectThe ball stays in the mesh net with the rest of your practice balls.
- FlipTurn the collector over to empty it into a bucket or your robot, then start again.
Built around real practice
A ball picker for the rooms where balls pile up.
At home, it helps make a robot session feel easier to reset. In a club, it helps a coach keep the floor clear between feeds. For a player working through a long drill, it makes the final pickup less of a chore before the next exercise begins.
It is not a complicated machine and it does not need to be. The patented pickup head, collection net and long handle focus on a stubborn little problem: balls on the floor steal time from the table. MyPingPongBuddy was made by a player, hand crafted in the USA, and built around getting that time back.
“Without a doubt the best ball picker available.”
A Megaspin reviewer highlighted easy access under the table, no bending and room for 60+ balls before unloading.

Made for the practice setups that create the most pickup.
Robot sessions
A robot can send balls back quickly, which is exactly why the floor fills up before you notice. Use the picker at the end of a block to gather balls in one pass, empty them into a bucket, and keep the next feed ready. It is a calmer reset than repeatedly crouching beside the table while the rhythm of the session disappears.
Multi-ball drills
Multi-ball is about volume, movement and repetition. That also means plenty of balls spread around the playing area. A picker gives the person feeding, practicing or helping with cleanup an easy way to clear the floor before the next group starts. Less clutter also makes it easier to move around the table safely.
Club practice
Shared practice rooms collect balls everywhere, especially around barriers and table legs. The long handle helps reach the ones nobody wants to crawl after. Keep the wall hanger near the table so the picker has an obvious home between sessions instead of becoming one more thing to store.
Home tables
A home practice space is often tighter, so every interruption is more noticeable. After a serve routine or robot block, collect the balls from the edges of the table before they become a pile you have to deal with later. The picker stores on the included wall hanger, ready when the next short session starts.
After the last drill
Use the final pickup as a clean finish to the session. A clear floor makes the room easier to share, reduces the chance of stepping on a ball on the way out, and means the next player starts with a better setup. It is a simple habit that keeps a practice space feeling ready.
Between short blocks
You do not have to wait until every ball is down. A quick collection break between focused blocks can help keep the room manageable, especially when you are practicing alone. Gather what is close, reset your bucket or robot, take a breath, and return to the next deliberate set.
