Gilbert Table Tennis Center

Great place getting some sweat out. Very clean and nicely designed. People are very friendly there. All trainers are world class players and very skillful. Michael the owner is a great guy, he will always help you with picking out the right racket, depending on your skill or game style. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to get a great exercise or simply have great time with friends or family. As far as prices go, it is really cheap to play and to get a lesson is also very affordable in my opinion.

Gilbert Table Tennis Center provided he perfect venue for my son’s 14^th birthday party. Customer service was excellent and extremely accomidating. Table Tennis Pro Alec did a great job teaching and leading games. All guests had a fabulous time!

Great place! My son and I loved it. It’s air-​conditioned, clean and orderly. The robo-​pong machine works fantastic!

Gilbert Table Tennis Center is a top notch facility with Olympic caliber equipment and players of all skill levels.

While visiting from Chicago to welcome the arrival of our new granddaughter, my parter and I investigated the Gilbert Tennis Club at the West Hollywood JCC and found a bevy of highly –rated instructors, many from Europe and Asia. We bought a ten-​lesson package and found Fovad, a former head coach of the Iranian University table tennis team, who was instructing two gifted children, under twelve, whom I am quite sure will be vying for the national championships soon. Watching the sport on TV at the Olympics gave us grand hopes for greatness, especially as we were old –hand tennis players. Alas, it doesn’t really translate. Nonetheless, after twelve lessons, Fovad gave us the basics. With more practice, we return to Chicago in hopes of continued proficiency.
The Gilbert center is located in the JCC which is convenient to W Hollywood with free parking. The Center has two levels; the lower level is air conditioned, which is helpful if you really work at the game. The price seemed reasonable and can be shared with another person to make it only $ 30/​per half hour. They have discounts for packages. The hours are 4−10p M-​Sat. But we played every day at 11:00 so times maybe flexible, especially with instructors.
Lucy Nicholson wrote a blog on the center and the work they are doing with Alzheimer and dementia patients. I hope ping pong will keep my brain and body sharp, while having a fun time. Check it out
Fovad said that children have to start around 6 or 7 if they want to be professionals. If you have a prospective child star; here’s your opportunity.

This tennis club has everything for those who are looking for just a fun, or practice for better rating:
There are 5 high quality tables + 2 tables with robots, parquet floor and plastic floor rooms. Store on premises carrying stock of first class blades, rubbers, accessories, water and snacks.
Convenient location, free parking, experienced coaches, excellent attitude and friendly welcoming environment making this place just perfect for recreational and high class players.

Great place!!! $ 7 all day, $ 50 monthly and there’s robots!!! 5 tables to play with the 2 tables for robots. Everyone there is super nice and very helpful. Never crowed. For $ 7 is worth just to watch super over competitive Russians (they wear sweat bands around the head and knees) yell and curse at each other in Russian, as close as you’ll find «balls of fury» in la.

Newly remodeled Table Tennis or Ping Pong facility has 5 tables and 2 robots. I like to practice here at this center. It is nice for group and private classes if you’d like to improve your game. Or you can just bring a friend and play unlimited time for $ 8! Sometimes it is busy here and you might have to wait a bit, but people generally rotate pretty fast. Staff is very helpful and there is a great pro shop if you need an equipment. Free parking in the garage is a big plus too. I love this place!

Whether you love ping pong, play it professionally, recreationally, or have never played before the Gilbert Table Tennis Centers is the place to be for an amazing and exhilarating time. The place is a state of the art facility, the atmosphere is fun and the clicking of the balls and paddles soothing and invigorating all at once. People are awesome and the coaches just delightful! I highly recommend this place, especially if you are looking to unwind, learn, or perfect your skill.

I believe Ping Pong is back and its better than ever!!! Paddles O’Fury!!!
The swatting of paddles, the whoosh of a small ball whizzing past your ear. The Spin, and back spin, the american grip or international, and where else can you get your table tennis crazies out???
And where can someone find hot sweaty table tennis action?
Well the Westside Jewish Community Center of course… Deep inside the Talmudic bowels of mystery and matzo lies the world of Master Gilbert, and his Ping Pong Center of world renown…
We played ping pong at the Gilbert Table Tennis Center. Where everyone at the Table Tennis Center lobby is welcome. And of course for you purists, this is a American Ping Pong Sanctioned club, so the tables will be hot, but the people will be ping pong cool…
Forget your cellphones you are in the basement of this Jewish Community Center… Paddle and unlimited play just 8 dollars. What a deal!!!
Bring a friend of comparable talent though. There are alot of pong sharks you can top spin you right on your butt.
