Safety

Table Tennis Safety

In an effort to avoid accidents on club play nights, we are asking for your help.

If we see you acting in an unsafe manner we are going to call you out on it.

If you see a safety infraction, inform a club officer and they will speak to the person

involved. Don’t be afraid to speak up you might save someone from getting hurt.

Don't walk onto or through other players' courts until you make eye contact with the players involved. A player with his back to you may not even know you are there, and may suddenly move backwards during a point, causing a collision with the potential to injure both of you.

When your ball goes into an adjacent court wait until the players on that court pause play and ask them to get the ball for you.

When playing doubles, keep aware of where your partner is, so that you don't accidentally hit him with your bat, or run into each other without expecting it.

Tables are close to one another, don’t run so far to the side that you are entering the adjacent

Court, you could collide with another player.
