US Open Orlando 2018
(by Steve Hopkins)

USATT announced this week that the 2018 US Open Table Tennis Championships would be held at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando.  The US Open is one of the premier events of US table tennis often attracting close to a thousand players with participants filling 125 tables across a huge venue.  The US Open includes a wide variety of events across multiple skill levels and is open to both beginners and professionals.  At the highest levels, the Open often includes well-known international players along with the best the US have to offer.

The US Open has a history in Florida, having been a fixture in Miami for many years.  This is the first time the event will be in the Orlando area.  Orlando should be a great fit, as it is already a well-known draw for family vacations and entertainment.  For information about the event and how to sign up, visit www.usatt.org.
