The usual mainstream media table tennis article. Mentions Forrest Gump and the 70s video game "Pong" and how amputees can compete against able-bodied players.

Here's some kids doing the USATT's job, promoting "serious table tennis."

When the media call it ping pong then thats the beginning of the end for readers, and always reminding people about Forest Gump with his 4mins of the Movie and especially when alignd up with a 1 legged man saying balls are dropping from the air

(, We had thousands more people playing in NZ before Forest Gump) , I think its just TV and Computers which is why less people play TT
Our advertising, media coverage is just non existant over here in NZ, hahaha Im just having a moan like you.
