The Table Tennis Group of
the Phoenix Club
in Anaheim, California, is one of the 17 groups of this
club founded by German immigrants in the 1960s. The
table tennis group was founded in 1980 at the old club
location on Douglas Road in Anaheim, now home of the
Honda Center. We used to play in the
“chicken house”
with just 4 tables and not much room behind the tables.
Since the move in 1992 to our newly built facility on
Anderson Rd. in Anaheim, just a little north of our
former location, we play in the pavilion, a modern,
air-conditioned building on wooden floor, with plenty of
parking. We have 6 new Butterfly championship
tables and sometimes we
have an opportunity to set up 2 more tables in the dance
studio to take care of overflow. We charge $7.00 for
non-members to play with us. All tables and equipment
are owned by the group and we furnish 40 mm 3 star Nittaku balls to play. We currently play inter-league
matches within our own group to establish a realistic
ranking system and at the end of the year we play in 3
groups for the club championship. The Christmas party,
is also used
for the trophy presentation.
Although this group is part of a club trying to preserve the German heritage of the founders, we welcome players from all countries. |
