Table Tennis News

Charlie Slater writes in with news from the Table Tennis Group:

 “While getting together for recreational playing is always fun, I encourage all of you to think about joining the USATT (www.usatt.org) and signing up for tournaments. The system is set up so that you can compete at many different levels. Last Sunday, Lennox Drakes and I played in the Georgia Games, held at Lucky Shoals. We played doubles together and had to face a team made up of Michael Levene and John Mar. We managed to win only the first game, but that is no small feat when you consider the difference of 1,183 points in our combined team ratings. Those of you who understand ratings know exactly what I’m talking about. Those of you who are not familiar…trust me…that point difference is HUGE!!!”
