    Hi everyone,
    I would just like to find out how many people out there play table tennis, either competitively or just for fun. I live in England and there are quite a lot of members in the organisation. WHat about in the States and other places, roughly how many people play.

    I'm in Texas, I haven't seen anybody playing table tennis around here. I used to play at high school for fun with my friends (in Europe). It's a fun sport, and I like it.

    I play for fun, we have a table tennis...table. For the most part I'd say table tennis isn't very popular in the US

    Haha, we have a ping pong table, pool table, foosball table and pinball machine in our social room. The Ping Pong table gets used everyday and we are in the process of setting up a ladder match system for interoffice play.

    Very competetive stuff....

    It is ironic, because today, I started to look for new work. I need to feel wanted again and not undervalued.

    Table tennis is pretty cool, I've never taken it up at any higher than school level though, although I am one of the best in my yeargroup at least. I prefer it more as a fun sport than a sport I actually play really competitively.

    I used to play a bit of table tennis at school. It was a good laugh.

    Wow, so general conclusion is that Table Tennis is a more fun sport than anything else.
