Moe / Newborough Keenagers Table Tennis Club was established in 2006 as a non-profit organisation with the purpose of providing participation, recreation and a social outlet for older residents and retirees in the Moe / Newborough area who would like a game of table tennis.
Morning tea is provided and most players have a break at about 10.30am. Our sessions are still $4.00 but the membership fee is $30.00 per annum (actually $50.00 per member but the club subsidies $20.00 because our insurance is now with Table Tennis Victoria)
Anyone over the age of 18 can now join the club although most of our members are retired.
The Club promotes a relaxed, social and friendly atmosphere which attracts people to play table tennis, from not just Moe, but many of the neighbouring municipalities.
Details of Keenagers table tennis are:
- Club plays at the Latrobe Leisure Centre, Old Sale Road, Newborough.
- Sessions are held Monday and Thursday from 9.30am to 11.30am
- Session fees are $4.00, with a membership fee is $30.00 per annum
- Table tennis is social stress-free recreation with no pennant competition structure and the opportunity to interact with like-minded people.
- Playing table tennis also provides a healthy lifestyle through coordination, balance, flexibility and the ability to exercise the mind.
