WAB CLUB FEATURE: Spin and Smash

(by Steve Hopkins)

Central Ohio is home to Spin & Smash.  Its a table tennis club that is part ping pong social club and part table tennis training center.  The club is open every day – at least 12 hours every day except for Sunday (which is open with shorter hours).  In addition to regular club events, like the Friday and Saturday Night Fun Tournaments (just drop in at 7:00p).

The club is located on the West side of Columbus just off of I-270, the Jack Nicklaus Freeway.  The club features eleven Butterfly tables and there are leagues, classes, clinics, and private coaching.  Spin & Smash coaching staff includes ITTF Level 3 certified coach Dave Fullen and Jay Nelson.

The club offers Junior Classes (drop-in) on Mondays at 7p, Adult Classes (drop-in) on Mondays at 8p, and an array of private lesson opportunities.  Their next sanctioned tournament is coming up on December 15-16, and there is also one in January on the weekend of the Jan 26-27.  Check the site their schedule of events.

The club is one where coaching is possible both for the Olympic style of the sport as well as for the “retro” styles of hardbat and sandpaper – and even basement ping pong.  As they say – However You Spin or Smash It — this is the club for you.
