Ping pongers in Geelong are excited by the start of the new season later this month.
Table Tennis Geelong owns arguably the best table tennis stadium in the Southern Hemisphere and that ping pong sound is set to be heard again.
Geelong features many state and national players as well as a large contingent of local competition and social players.
Table Tennis is a relatively inexpensive sport with great diversity – veterans, children, people with disabilities, males and females can all play together (or separately if they wish).
“It will be a terrific opportunity for families in Geelong to come along for free and see champion table tennis players perform at their best,” Geelong Association secretary Phillip Carruthers said.
Competition matches are played in teams of two or three players and typically take up to two hours to complete, starting at 7pm for adults and 6.30pm for junior pennants.
Senior, Junior and Veterans Pennants commence in the week starting January 31, but there is a free grading/practice night for juniors at 7pm on Wednesday January 18.
