Table tennis suits everyone, young and old. Table tennis or ‘ping pong’, as many know it from their holiday camp, is a genuine recreational sport, in which speed and movement make the difference between winning and losing. You can acquire that speed at our club by participating in the training. We also teach the correct footwork and the correct movement to strike, as well as developing your vision of the game.

But table tennis is about more than the road to winning your first match! Table tennis also means co-operation and unity within the club, where you can talk about the match and meet your fellow players.

Our oldest playing member is more than 70 years old. The game can be played at all levels, competitive as well as recreational, on our five tables.

Youth (up to about 16 years of age) are recommended to contact our partner club www.pingpongalkmaar.nl. From the age of 16 you can join us and participate in competition in either the national union’s NTTB competition or that of the Alkmaar-ABTTB.

Playing table tennis is certainly not expensive. Not much gear is needed: a bat, indoor sports shoes, a T-shirt and shorts. Table tennis is an indoor sport, so it can be practised any time and day. Injuries caused by table tennis are not frequent, so all in all there are many reasons to come and have a look!
