New Pickleball club to include TT - Suggestions wanted on Grand Opening
With the huge surge in pickleball in the US, a new club is opening in Florida and they want to include table tennis. I've meet the key reps and viewed the facility and agreed to help them organize their TT operation, assist in purchasing equipment, establish rules of play, make recommendations on costs and more. It's very exciting.
The TT space has 10 ft. ceilings so no sanctioned events but acceptable for local and regional play. I'm asking the TT community to share their thoughts on the Grand Opening of the Pickleball/Table Tennis facility. Obviously an exhibition of high skilled players is a thought. How about players who specialize in exhibition play? I've seen players on YouTube who specialize in trick and unconventional play. The intent of the Grand Opening is to gain interest for the community via TV and newspaper sports personnel. And TV likes visually appealing action. Share your ideas. This is a non profit operation that will have pickleball and TT available at all times when the facility is open. As a new non profit, they are watching the investment in equipment expenses, and the Grand Opening expenses to justify the costs .
The Grand Opening is September 26-27. Here's the link about the complex. https://pickleballdaytona.com/ and the table tennis mention is on line 6. NO DETAILS OF TT IS LISTED ON THE WEBSITE AS YET. I'm helping them coordinate and organize that.
One gets one time to make a first impression. Help me to help the new club with your thoughts, suggestions, contributions, donations, participation or more. I am donating my time and my work and my participation is voluntary without compensation. Share your ideas here or with a PM. But share.
