Local players may find a lot to like about the center. The vast front room features five tables and plenty of space for people to play. It also holds the Newgy Robo-Pong 2000, a machine that spits out balls for players to hit while practicing. Julianne Pugh said the center caters to a diverse group of customers. People play back and forth.
Some people are really good at it.
Some barely speak any English. There are just so many different people. People can play or learn to play at the center, which holds open play every day and has hired Bill Lui to hold private lessons on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The center also holds round-robin tournaments on Mondays and Wednesdays. Lui coaches two junior national champions from Walnut Creek at the center.
