Congratulations to Yamoto for winning the Fiesta Coffee Competition tonight (winning 13 games); Upasna for winning “Most Improved Female Player”, and Lucas for winning “Most Improved Male Player” at the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) Club Night tonight 🙂
Congratulations to Joseph for winning the Fiesta Coffee Competition tonight (winning 19 games); Drina for winning “Most Improved Female Player” and Eps for winning “Most Improved Male Player” at the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) Club Night tonight, our first husband-and-wife winning combination 🙂
In response to the above, the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) can now confirm that the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) will honor the balance (without cost) of any existing annual membership term for any table tennis players who wish to transfer from the Waitemata Table Tennis Association to the Waitakere Table Tennis Association, up to a capped total of 20 players.
We have now begun accepting the transfer-by-approach of players from the Waitemata Table Tennis Association to the Waitakere Table Tennis Association, and we trust that this decision will assist other Waitemata Table Tennis Association players who may also be considering such a membership transfer to the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA).
Congratulations to Nandini for winning “Most Improved Female Player” and Joseph for winning “Most Improved Male Player” at the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) Club Night tonight 🙂

The Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) continues to receive ongoing inquiries from the community regarding joining our family-friendly and vibrant club, even though our 100-member capacity cap has been reached.
Whether it’s the Gold FM (think 60’s through to the 90’s) rock, pop, or ballads that pipe from the speakers on club night (yes, some members do actually add little dance interludes at the table they are playing on), or the rumours that abound about a brand new expresso coffee machine soon to hit the club kitchen in time for the coming winter, a whole lot of people seem really, really keen to join our local table tennis fraternity 🙂
As a result of this ongoing demand (and the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) being able to secure some more space at the Glen Eden Recreation Centre) as from April 2024, the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) will be raising its current membership cap from 100 to 150 members, and add an additional table tennis table for club night, bringing the total number of playing tables to six.
We are delighted to be able to meet the popular demand of our local table tennis community 🙂
Welcome back to all of our members for 2024 🙂
A full house to start us off into the New Year at our now five-table venue at the Glen Eden Recreation Centre!
Thank you to our members for such a great launch to the year.
In 2024, the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) will be adding a 5th table to the Thursday Club Night, and “capping” the club membership to 100 players.
“Capping” the Club membership will ensure that the club does not become overcrowded on Club Night (as not all 100 players will attend the club every week at the same time), and Club members will also enjoy priority table booking & cheaper player fees on Club Night (please see below).
Membership Cards will also be available for members.
Annual Membership:
Adults: $20.00 per annum.
16 & Under: $10.00 per annum.
Club Night Fees (Thursdays, 6.30 pm – 9 pm):
Adult Members: $10.00 per 2.5-hour session.
Adult Casual: $12.00 per 2.5-hour session.
16 & Under Members: $5.00 per 2.5-hour session.
16 & Under Casual: $7.00 per 2.5-hour session.
Thank you for choosing West Auckland’s family-friendly table tennis cub 🙂
Owing to the rapidly increasing popularity and growth of the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA), two new club initiatives will be introduced in 2024.
1/ From 02/04/24, Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) members will have the opportunity to attend a second weekly club night (Tuesdays, 7.30 pm – 10 pm) at the French Bay Table Tennis Club, St John Vianney Church, 317 Hillsborough Rd, Hillsborough, Auckland.
2/ Table Tennis Group Bookings (e.g. for schools, corporate, or private hire) will be available on Fridays throughout the year (subject to booking confirmation).
Thank you all for supporting the rapid growth and popularity of the Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) in West Auckland 🙂
The French Bay Table Tennis Club is located at St John Vianney Church, 317 Hillsborough Rd, Hillsborough, Auckland, and runs a Tuesday Club Night from 7.30m to 10 pm each week. Player fees are $10.00 per person.
French Bay is affiliated with the Auckland Table Tennis Association and is currently keen to recruit some more members who are experienced in the game of table tennis.
If you are a more experienced table tennis player, looking for an opportunity to play against some other similarly experienced table tennis players, then French Bay Table Tennis Club could be the local club for you.
Contact waitakeretabletennis@gmail.com for more information.
The Waitakere Table Tennis Association (WTTA) formally launched its first Club Night (Thursdays @ 715pm – 9.15 pm) at the Glen Eden Recreation Centre just 3 weeks ago and we are delighted to report that we have already reached our player capacity of 20 players maximum per night.
In order to ensure our club players are guaranteed a playing spot on Club Night, an attendance confirmation email to club players will be sent out each Thursday morning, and player attendance may be confirmed by reply email.
Any playing spots left over will then be made available to new walk-in club attendees at the door on the night.
Thank you for your support of West Auckland’s newest Table tennis club – it is much appreciated 🙂
