PEACE AND PONG’S basic information and philosophy

The Peace and Pong Table Tennis Club has joined with the Portland Table Tennis Club at 1720 SE Haig Street, Portland, Oregon. We have joined together to create one super table tennis club. Peace and Pong run their programs on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays.

The Portland Table Tennis Club is partners with the Peace and Pong Table Tennis Club and share facilities and programs from 12-9, 7-days a week.

Check the above calendar for exact dates.

Peace and Pong Table Tennis Club and the Portland Table Tennis Club are official USA TT affiliated clubs.

Born in the 1890’s, Table Tennis or Ping Pong has had a rich and historically significant impact on the world. People and cultures get together to play with the idea of Peace and Pong in their heads. The simple act of playing together with people from a different culture can help bring all of us closer to world peace. The power of our sport as a vehicle for peaceful relationships is real and tremendous. As the name of our club implies, PEACE AND PONG, we embrace all cultures. In our small way, we wish PEACE AND PONG TTC to help build bridges of peace throughout the world.

Peace and Pong at the Portland Table Tennis Club will be an accepting and welcoming site for all styles, levels, ages, gender identities, and ethnicities. This will continue to be a place of Peace and Pong.

Peace and Pong along with the Portland TTC will be a Table Tennis Club of kindness and good sporting-like attitudes. Players with an ultra-aggressive attitude and demeanor are encouraged to play elsewhere. Unlike many top clubs, our top-rated Master level players from Peace and Pong show a kind, friendly, non-elitist attitude.

Players who speak out against the LGBTQ+ community and people of different ethnic backgrounds are not welcome at our club. Hate speech and comments are not allowed at our club.

Jeff and Sandy Mason direct and run the club on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, along with other days of the week for clinics and camps. Both are retired public school teachers and Jeff is a current US Certified National Table Tennis Coach (one of only a few in the country). Sandy runs and manages the front desk and greets all players coming into the club with a kind, friendly manner.

Please contact us for any further information about table tennis or to sign up for any coaching or competitions at the club.
