About Us
Table Tennis ACT (TTACT) is a non profit organisation that has been operating since the 1950s.
The Club offers a wide range of activities to bring people together who enjoy playing table tennis, either socially or competitively.
The club operates a dedicated table tennis centre at Kingston for members use. We also play socially at the indoor Archery centre in Greenway (Tuggeranong venue) on Sunday afternoons as well as Shirley Smith High School at Kenny on Wednesday and Friday evenings. Please see Venue Timetable here. Non-members are welcome to play at Tuggeranong and kenny for a small walk-in fee.
The Club welcomes members of all ages and abilities. The Club runs Coaching sessions for Adults, Juniors and Para, Social Competitions, Weekly Pennant and Tournaments, Social Seniors (Monday and Thursday mornings) and organises teams to represent the ACT in National events including Senior, Junior, Para and Veterans.
TTACT is affiliated with Table Tennis Australia and the International Table Tennis Federation. Table Tennis in ACT Strategic Plan 2023-25 is available here.
Table Tennis ACT acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the ACT, the Ngunnawal people. We acknowledge and respect their continuing culture and the contribution they make to the life of this city and this region.
