Did you know… playing ping pong has many health benefits for seniors?

Playing table tennis has great health benefits for seniors and is a great way to stimulate the brain and promote quick thinking while improving hand-eye coordination. Table tennis is a low-injury risk sport that keeps one fit and flexible and improves reflexes. It is a great way to improve your leg, arm and core strength without overtaxing your joints. Playing table tennis increases one’s agility and flexibility, and most of all, your reaction time.

Our Ping Pong table is located in the community room of Midway Pointe and is open to all residents on campus. We have a group of regular players but would love to see more people join in and see the potential health benefits for seniors ping pong can have. You don’t need any special skills, just a willing attitude and an interest in having some fun!

Join us for two fun events:

• Friday, 2/26 from 1-3pm For Beginners: Learn how to Play (taught by Chaplain Phil)
•  Friday, 3/11 from 1-3pm For all Skill Levels: Tournament
