Your nearest social table tennis club
Table tennis for East Maitland players
If you are in East Maitland and looking for a social game of table tennis, the good news is that the Maitland Social Table Tennis Club is just a short trip away. We play weekly sessions at Pat Hughes Community Hall in Thornton, and we get players from East Maitland along all the time. No booking, no kit to buy, just turn up and we will get you into a game.
A relaxed club for the whole area
We are a volunteer-run social club, not a competition league. People come for a fun hit with friendly faces, not rankings or results. Whether you played in high school and have not touched a bat since, or you have never played at all, you will feel comfortable here.
Bats and balls are provided, so there is nothing to organise before your first visit. Just show up in comfortable clothes and flat shoes.
- All ages and ability levels welcome
- Bats and balls supplied, or bring your own
- No booking or commitment required
- Welcoming regulars happy to help newcomers settle in
Sessions and location
We play at Pat Hughes Community Hall, Taylor Avenue, Thornton NSW 2322. For East Maitland players it is an easy drive. There is street parking on and around Taylor Avenue.
Sessions run Monday and Wednesday from 12:30pm to 2:30pm, and Friday from 6:30pm to 8:30pm. The Friday evening session is a great place to start if you are new.
What it costs
Each session is $5, paid as you go. There is also a $27 annual Table Tennis NSW membership to cover you to play. That is the full cost. No contracts, no ongoing fees, no pressure.
