Table tennis is a sport for all. It can help releasing work stress and burning off unwanted calories at a rate higher than football (professional players can hit a ball 3 times a second!). You can also play table tennis whatever the weather is.
We meet at the Club Studio on most weekday evenings, and at the Hub Theatre on weekend mornings whenever we are able to book it.
The Club has five tables with nets, bats, balls and a serving robot for use by members. However, for serious players, they are encouraged to bring their own bats. We now have about 40 members. The Club is also an Affiliated Club of the Milton Keynes Table Tennis League. We currently have four teams playing in the league at varies divisions.
The way we arrange a practice session is that I send out an email with the availabilities of our venues to all the people in the mailing list in the mornings of Mondays and Thursday. If someone is interested to play, he/she will use our online form to record the date and time he/she intends to play and the information will be summarised in a shared spreadsheet. Others will be able to find out who and when people are playing by checking shared spreadsheet. If you would like to join the mailing list, please contact me.
Members of the Club are happy to give advice and help to new members.
