Adoni has been around the sport of table tennis for much of his life. As an adult, he was re-introduced to the classic forms of ping pong and has had great success competing in hardbat, sandpaper, and liha events. In fact, “great success” understates his achievements as has won national and open championships in classic events.
A special thank you to Adoni for sharing these stories.
