WATCH OUT FOR SLICK FLOORS! 
When the dew point is high, our floors and tables begin to sweat.  This begins in the furthest most room and so far has been contained there.  Please let everyone know if you feel things getting slippery.  We reconfigure the playing area to avoid that room if it occurs.

Previously Phoenixville Table Tennis Club ran from 2009 to 2015 in Phoenixville and 2015-2020 as Rising Phoenix in KOP drawing players from Exton, Downingtown, Malvern, King of Prussia, Collegeville, Pottstown, and even Princeton, NJ.  On any night we would have between 15 and 40 players. Our friendly atmosphere, regulated playing format, and fair treatment of all playing levels helped us to succeed.

We currently have six tables and supply balls.

What we think makes us successful:

• We greeted everyone who visited and explained our system
• We used a waiting list system in which the player "on deck" gets to choose any opponent
• Play was limited to 2 minute warm and a match, best out of five - OR - 20 minutes of practice using provided timers (or 15 min. if it is really busy)
• We provided buckets filled with balls, you never have to stop play to retrieve yours, or anyone else's balls.
• We had a sitting area for players to converse while waiting
• Active internet presence
• A variety of periodically scheduled events such as coaching clinics, tournaments, and fun celebrations.

• When a player arrives, he adds himself to the bottom of the playing list.
• Each player waits his turn.
• When everyone's name above you is crossed off, it is your turn to play. You may choose to do one of the following:
  --ask another idle player to play a match,
  --ask three other players to play a doubles match,
  --ask another idle player if they want to practice.
  -- delay playing (if he's still tired, or wants to wait for someone who is already playing). 
  --If a player delays, it's the next player in line's turn.
• All players going to the table cross their names off the list.
• A player who is asked for a match may decline the invitation.
• Players will start a 15 minute timer at the table. Matches should be played first, and if time allows practice. ***
• Matches are first to 3 wins, each game is to 11 points, and the service switches every 2 points.. ***
• When a match or practice is over, ALL players leave that table, return to the waiting area, and add their names to the BOTTOM of the waiting list.
• When there are a large number or people waiting, please pick someone else who has been waiting and who has not just come off the table.  Or consider asking three players for a doubles match.

***When the player count exceeds 26 we go to CODE RED :Matches are best 2 out of 3 or a timed practice of 10 minutes.
Below 26 we are CODE GREEN :Matches are best 3 out of 5 or a timed practice of 15 minutes.
Doubles matches will remain best 3 out of 5 during red and green.
