Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays from 10am-1pm
FREE for players 50 and over
Since February 2008, NYTTF and Chinese Christian Herald Crusades (CCHC) have proudly co-sponsored a table tennis health program for seniors (50 years and over). The program is intended to help seniors become more physically and mentally active. The aerobic activity of the sport stimulates healthy bodily functions, increases mental alertness, promotes better sleep and digestion, and improves overall physical strength and well being.
The social benefits of table tennis are unquestionable as well. Friendly competition and team work are encouraged in the program. Laughter is a common amongst the players, and it helps relieve every day stress. The program has created a new community for seniors, one that looks forward to seeing playing with one another.
Participants learn warm-up exercises, proper foot work, strokes, and basic techniques of beginning and intermediate levels of table tennis. On Fridays, a NYTTF coach will conduct lessons free of charge. Participants are also eligible to receive 40% discounts on select table tennis rackets.
To take part in this program, bring a picture ID to register and you will be interviewed to ensure proper physical condition before joining the program.
