Rajul Sheth and the ICC Table Tennis Center has made the news yet again! ABC News just aired a segment on Rajul’s center in Milpitas, CA. You may have seen many of the club’s juniors at San Diego tournaments, or at the US Nationals, with “ICC” printed on their backs. This facility, which is just for table tennis, not only has its own training camps with world class coaches (like our own Stellan Bengtsson) but has tournaments that are broadcasted live over the internet!

If that weren’t enough, as a promotional tool for Rajul’s last tournament, he made a commercial which was played in Bay Area movie theaters advertising the tournament! How’s that for exposure?

Table tennis is getting some exposure on network television! Check out this clip from the Ellen show featuring Feng Xin-Xue with an appearance from Barney Reed Jr.!

We are saddened by the loss of our dear friend Art Pintado, former President of the SDTTA. He died yesterday from pancreatic cancer, after just finding out a couple days ago that he had it. We obviously are shocked by his sudden death but wanted to give you his funeral info so you could attend if you want to.

Jason Yang won the Men’s Open–1500 and Under, with John Kolano runner up.  Angel Luo won the Women’s Open, with Thu Tran runner-up.  David Flores won the Juniors Event in a three-way playoff with J.R. and Josiah Framo. Congratulations to the winners, and thank you to everyone who competed for making the event a success!

I have been informed by Borko (the tournament director for the Senior Olympics this weekend) that club members can start coming at noon today to start open play! I have changed the calendar to reflect the change. See you there!
