About the Association
History & Heritage
The Townsville Table Tennis Association was established in 1931 and was the first table tennis association to own its own building in the Commonwealth. Located at 60 Charters Towers Road in Hermit Park, Townsville, the facility houses two halls - the original from 1951 and a newer playing hall constructed in 1982.
Our Mission
The association welcomes visitors from local, regional, and overseas communities. We actively develop both seasoned veterans and junior players, with representatives competing at Queensland and National Championships. The coaching staff includes current and former title holders who provide expertise for adult and junior development.
