桌球球拍檢測機制之探析

眾多文獻指出有機膠水內含有害人體成分，國際桌球總會已於2008年9月1日起禁止選手使用揮發性有機溶劑之膠水，並於賽會期間檢測選手球拍，筆者曾就國內賽事檢測制度及程序做過初步介紹與建議，然而隨著科技進步也使得檢測儀器更加精密周延，驅使對於球拍的檢測日益嚴格且多樣，相對檢測標準提高，其用意除為選手及周遭群眾的健康把關外，更堅定杜絕有機膠水之使用，並要求使用之器材合法化，檢測的項目也逐漸增加，要讓比賽更加公平。而處於新舊規則交替間之選手如何適應檢測機制、修正訓練內容及方向，將是未來一大新課題。本文透過文獻探討方式，延續介紹目前國內外桌球賽事對於球拍檢測機制與方法，期望透過本文介紹讓從事桌球運動選手及教練參考，平時訓練除提升基本技術、專項體能外，更別忽略本身所使用器材的合法性。

Several articles have shown that the use of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) glue has caused negative effects on human bodies. Since September 1, 2008, the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) has banned the use of organic glue, and checked the rackets by using detection equipment in the tournaments. The author has introduced the VOCs scrutiny process and provided some advices on it. However, with the advance of science and technology, the VOCs detecting equipment is getting precised and accurate, which also makes the detection processes stricter than ever before. The purpose of raising the VOCs scrutiny level not only protects the health of players and people surrounded, but also tries to terminate the use of inhibiting organic glue in table tennis. To achieve the requirement of using legal glue, the scrutiny items are also increased to ensure the fairness of the competition. A new issue is raised that players who are trained through the old regulations to adapt the new scrutiny process and adjust the training programs. Through the reviews of the related documents and records, this article introduces the current racket examining process and methods in tournaments. In addition, this article reminds table tennis players and coaches to focus on the routine which improves the technique and physical fitness and also notices the legality of the table tennis racket.
