With their location just South of central Rochester along Hwy 390, the Genesee Valley Table Tennis Club is in a great location to serve the Greater Rochester Community of Northern New York. The roots of table tennis in Rochester go back to the 1930’s as not one but TWO clubs were founded in the year 1938. The club moved a few times, and and some different incarnations through the 1950s, 60s, and 70s.
The move to the current location (RSG) occurred in 1986. The club plays on 8 tables on a cement floor with very high ceilings. The club has a Monday league open to all players, and a Tuesday Classic League. Practice time is available on Saturday mornings. Because the Sports Garden is a year-round facility catering to multiple indoor sports, players who want extra playing time can rent the club’s tables and play on most any evening.
In additional to leagues, there are tournaments, open play, and lessons for all levels.
