Try this instead

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"> <TableLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:stretchColumns="1"> <TableRow> <TextView android:text="Country City Game(aka CCG) is an acdemic work of MTA students enjoy the game" android:textSize="24.5sp" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"></TextView> </TableRow> </TableLayout> </ScrollView>

Put your entire layout that you want to be able to scroll inside a ScrollView.
