Our Community
Our table tennis community serves all ages, all abilities,
and all ethnicities. Sport is something that can be used to
unite people. In OUR Sport, players are generally tiered by
ability, so a typical tournament could include men and
women, old and young, and there’s a strong US para athlete
presence, so you could have wheelchair or para-players
competing in the same events as well.
Recent and Upcoming
The RI State Games are for RI Residents Only.
The Spring Open is for ALL Players from All States.
On the Weekend of May 4/5, there are events for everyone !
Sign up at OMNIPONG or in person at the club.

Before the pandemic, one could argue that Rhode Island Table Tennis had only closed once in its history - and that was for World War II. There is a rich history here that includes a Monday League that has run continuously since the 1940s, and State Championships extending into the 1930s. Come and be a part of this rich history.
