We practice twice a week at the MAC. Anyone with a Harvard ID can come, at any level, and your first three practices are free.
We compete in the National Collegiate Table Tennis Association (NCTTA). Our members range from people picking up a paddle for the first time to national champions, and they all play at the same practices.
There's no attendance requirement and no cut. A typical practice mixes drills, matches, some coaching, and the occasional in-house tournament. Come to as many as you like.
