TABLE TENNIS
Are you interested in smacking down your opponents? Methodically placing the ball so that it lands just perfectly out of reach? Using all your strength to whip that ball over the net at incredible speeds? Then come join us and play table tennis. Affectionately knows as ping pong, this is not your grandmother’s leisure game. Ping pong involves skill and strategy, while simultaneously making sure you have a blast. Depending on your skill level or interest, we will have intense tournaments or after school fun at our ping pong tables. Come prepared to play, win, and meet others with similar interests.
