Table Tennis/Ping Pong
Our regular play times are Mondays and Wednesdays from 4 to 6 pm, Fridays from 1 to 3
pm, and Saturdays from 10 am to 12 pm. Because of scheduling conf licts for the ballroom,
we sometimes get bumped into special play times that are updated on the SLCC website,
and printed copies are available on play days in the Ballroom. There is also a touch screen
monitor in the Main Clubhouse Lobby where the schedule can be brought up. If there are
any questions or concerns, contact Gary Lile at (805) 722-7427, 4lile@yahoo.com, or leave
a message with John Williams at (951) 489-9737, jgwms.williams@gmail.com. All comers
are welcome — the only requirements are laced tennis shoes, and a desire to have fun, play
with friends, and get some excellent health benefits from a low risk activity.
POP Tennis
POP Tennis, formerly known as Paddle Tennis, is
a fun, fast sport that can be enjoyed by people at all
fitness levels. Though played on a smaller court, with
a different paddle, and 20 percent deflated tennis balls,
POP Tennis is otherwise scored and regulated like traditional tennis.
POP Tennis is played on the courts to the left of the Main Clubhouse
usually on Thursday mornings from 8 to 10 am (fall/winter hours).
Additionally, there is a group that plays Tuesday, Thursday, and
Sunday afternoons from 3 to 5 pm. People are free to
come and go as their schedules permit. Hours are subject
to change, so it is best to check the bulletin board located
at the courts for current play times.
All are welcome and there are always friendly folks to teach
beginners the game! Paddles and balls are provided too. For more
information or to express a desire to be on a decision-making
committee, contact Carl Miller at (951) 512-3131 Hope you'll POP in!
