The Sun City Table Tennis Club plays
at Cowan Creek Amenity Center. Due to
renovation of Cowan Creek, regular club
days/hours are now restricted to Saturday
and Sunday. Play on other days and times
continues to be an option if the Salado
room has not been scheduled for use by
another group (check with the Cowan
Creek monitor or at the Sun City Com-
munity Association website). In addition,
two tables are now available for play in the
Cowan Creek Pavilion. Balls and tables
are in the closet of the Salado room and
paddles are in the cabinet. Please sign the
log-in book on the counter whenever you
play. Family and friends of CA members
are welcome during non-club hours.
Table Tennis is a sport which can be
played at the beginner level (ping pong)
or at the Olympic level—playing exer-
cises both your brain and body and puts
a smile on your face. There is a ladies
group, a men’s group, mixed play, singles
and doubles. There is a yearly social-new
member meeting, four Board meetings per
year and an annual membership meeting.
The club also offers members beginner
and intermediate clinics at no additional
cost, as well as use of a robot for practice!
Check the website for additional events,

Yearly dues are $10 per person. We are

ported and encouraged. We invite you to
become a member of the Sun City Table
Tennis Club.
