Table tennis offers a great way to bond with other people while you stay fit and active. There are many benefits to seniors playing table tennis including: improved balance, improved reflexes, mental sharpness and making new friends. The Club offers a minimum of 2 mornings of social table tennis for seniors each week. To play Social Seniors, people must 1. join the club (membership plus venue fee) and 2. register for Social Seniors.
Social Seniors is offered Monday and Thursday mornings (9am to 12 noon). All members are welcome (all ages and all abilities), however most people attending are over 55.
The method of payment for Social Seniors is changing in 2024. Instead of paying for different options there is now just one Fee.
This is $50 for the whole year.
There is no Concession on this Fee (there is a concession available on Membership).
Members are to register for "Social Seniors " through the website's event page.
