TRAINING
In December 2015 he began training at Westchester Table Tennis Center in Pleasantville, NY, United States of America. He has also trained in France and Sweden under an internship programme set up by the Togolese Table Tennis Federation and the Togolese National Olympic Committee. "I heard about Westchester Table Tennis Center from a friend and I decided to come. I came here to explore new table tennis opportunities. I didn't know that table tennis was popular in the US so I'm pleasantly surprised with what I am seeing in terms of level. The preparation and my training programme are coordinated by the Togolese Table Tennis Federation and the Togolese National Olympic Committee."

COACHING
He is a licensed International Table Tennis Federation [ITTF] level 1 coach. "I started coaching my teammates in 2012 before I got my ITTF license as a level 1 coach. I started table tennis very late, so I enjoy coaching over playing because I still have the opportunity to make champions." (teamusa.org, 23 Feb 2016)
