Central Ohio is home to Spin & Smash, a table tennis club that is part ping pong social club and part table tennis training center. The club features eleven Butterfly tables and there are leagues, classes, clinics, and private coaching.  The club is open 12 hours Mon-Sat day (with shorter hours on Sundays).

In addition to regular club events, Spin & Smash also runs sanctioned tournaments such as the upcoming Spring Open, a 2-star event with $2100 in cash prizes which will be held April 6-9.

The club has also been selected as the host for the regional Hopes Camp and Tournament this April.  The Hopes Program is a series of regional, national and international camps and competitions sponsored by the ITTF and USATT that are designed to spark motivation and interest for young athletes.  (USATT Hopes information site)

One thing that is different about this club is that Spin & Smash have incorporated music into the facility (even live music on Saturday nights) to cater not just to hard core players, but also to those looking to have some fun.   The club is one where coaching is possible both for the Olympic style of the sport as well as for the “retro” styles of hardbat and sandpaper – and even basement ping pong.

As they say – However You Spin or Smash It — this is the club for you.
