TABLE TENNIS WITH AN (unhinged) TWIST!

Play artist-made KRAZY TABLES from the National Novelty Ping Pong Table Collection, which have AMUSED (and frustrated) participants and spectators alike since KING PING PONG started commissioning them in 2016.

If you think YOUR table tennis is up to scratch, PLAY THE TABLES to SEE HOW GOOD YOU ARE!

King Ping Pong is the FEVER-DREAM of curators and ping pong enthusiasts DAVEY MOOR and PAUL McGRANE.  Since 2012, pretty much every organisation in Dublin and beyond has fielded players and this year it comes to CORK for the first time and ALL PLAYERS are welcome to try their hand and their paddle!
