In an automatic table tennis apparatus which comprises: a rectangular table tennis table which is divided into a first court on one side and a second court on the other side, with respect to a net provided vertically in the width direction, and has a height formed by support posts supported by the lower end of the table; a pitching machine which is provided on an end portion of the first court and launches, towards the second court, table tennis balls supplied sequentially; a collecting stand which is provided on the side of the end portion of the first court, collects the table tennis balls that have been transferred or dropped, and supplies the balls to the pitching machine; and a fence part which comprises a lower guide provided in parallel to the ground and a mesh provided upward of the lower guide to form a space in which the table tennis table is placed, limits the extent to which the table tennis balls can escape, and guides the movement direction of the table tennis balls that dropped on the ground, the present invention relates to the automatic table tennis training apparatus comprising: a blowing unit which blows the table tennis balls that dropped on the ground below the table tennis table to move the balls towards an end portion of one side of the lower guide provided below the table tennis table; and a transfer unit which sucks the table tennis balls that moved to the end portion of one side of the lower guide to transfer the balls to the collecting stand. In addition, the automatic table tennis training apparatus includes a table tennis ball transfer device at a guide groove where the table tennis balls that dropped on the ground below the table tennis table are along a guide plate on the bottom surface inclined towards a central portion of the first court and the second court, so that table tennis balls (A) are transferred to the collecting stand.
