TABLE TENNIS GROWING ON EAST COAST OF FLORIDA

Bill Mitcheson, from the SpaceCoast area of Florida is reporting record attendance at the local clubs in that beautiful and fun section of the Sunshine State. Table Tennis sessions are drawing huge crowds, requiring extra tables and some wait time for players. Mitcheson also reports that there is a possibility for a growing new Table Tennis club in Melbourne, Florida. The added club will be great as it will present four quality locations for Table Tennis in the area. Discussions are underway to possibly rename some of the clubs in the area, with nothing final as of this report. There appears to be a bright future for Table Tennis all along the great East Coast of Florida--Exciting Times!!!
