The Maine Table Tennis League will officially begin it’s 19th season on Monday, Sept. 12 at 5:30 p.m. at the Lewiston Armory, 65 Central Ave.
Entrance is at the rear of the building near the ball field.
Dues are $40 for adults and $30 for players 12 and under and are due at the time of registration. The season runs from September thru May. Everyone is invited to join, regardless of playing ability. The league has various levels of competition.
League play is on Monday evenings from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Practice times are Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
Ten professional tables are available for play. The league supplies balls for play as well as a Robot for members to practice on their own if they so desire.
For those needing paddles or supplies, the league has them available at reduced prices.
Members of the league include the state of Maine, male and female champions.
The Maine Table Tennis League is the only table tennis league or club of its kind in the state. It is sanctioned by the United States of America Table Tennis (USATT) to hold tournaments.
Players are asked to change sneakers before playing, which means they should carry an extra pair of footwear to change into. This alleviates damage to the Armory’s painted floor and prevents tracking in grime, dirt and sand.
