Ernesto Jon Ebuen talks about his struggle to find places to play as a 12 year old in the Philippines, his rise to their National Team, and his success abroad.  Ernesto traveled the world with the Philippines team and won six Filipino National Championships in his playing career there. He also discusses how he found a niche in coaching, how he and Michael Landers relied on each other, and how new table tennis ventures continue to provide Ebuen-branded opportunities for table tennis players in New York City.
