The
WJTTC has been around since 1966, and in our current location for the last 22
years. The club rents the gymnasium
at the United Methodist Church in Pennsauken, New Jersey (a few miles east of
Philadelphia, PA) Tuesdays & Thursdays and sets-up/takes down eight tables
& barriers. Netting is placed on the sides of the tables to reduce ball
travel and interference with the adjacent players.
Half of the tables are allocated for the more advanced players.
Typically 15-20 players participate on most nights.
The range of players is from 2300 to novice and from juniors to
80-year-old seniors. The goal of our club is to: “Provide the best possible
playing conditions for all individuals equally.”
