Onto a New Chapter for The Top Spin

Welcome to a New Chapter for The Top Spin

Today marks a new exciting chapter for The Top Spin as we transition to the new owner and management team.  It’s been a wonderful 8 years since we started.  As the first full-time table tennis center in the Bay Area, we helped transformed the entire table tennis scene around the bay.  We took the sports from basement and community centers into the mainstream.  There are now many full-time centers/clubs around the Bay.

There were so many memorable accomplishments along the way for us including hosting 2 Nation Team Trials, running the most high-prized Singles League in the Bay, and being recognized as ITTF Hot Spot and USATT National Center of Excellence.

With that history, however, we are ready to make another wave.  And there’s no one better to do that then the owner of The Top Spin, Kevin Korb.  He has exciting new vision for The Top Spin as well as table tennis in general.  We are so excited to be handing the baton to Kevin and have him lead the next revolution.

Once again, please help welcome and give your full support to Kevin Korb.  Your next communications from The Top Spin will be from Kevin.

Thank you for all your support over the years.

Signing out,
The former Top Spin Team.
