July 23--The table tennis player on United States land is at Duluth. Belgium native Frederic Sonnet, once ranked No. 80 in the world, https://github.com/pingpongsport/bestpingpong/wiki/Best-Ping-Pong-Paddles-&-How-To-Choose-Them was persuaded to be the most bizarre entrant in the inaugural Lake Superior International Open, which runs today through Sunday at the DECC and Pioneer Hall.
Sonnet, 38, who lives in Paris, joined other celebrity players in the Greysolon Ballroom in an exhibition of amazing skill to help increase awareness of the game. "In Europe everyone understands tabletennis, but for a lot of the USA, it is still a cellar game," said Sonnet. "Soccer wasn't a huge game in the United States 20 years ago, but today it's. Table tennis could make exactly the growth with good coaching, training places that are very good and decent sponsorship.
It can go higher and higher." In accordance with International Table Tennis Federation rankings, the top American men's player is Mark Hazinski at No. 383 on earth. Sunny Helbacka and Angelo Simone of the Duluth Table TennisClub, based at the Valley Youth Center, have dreamed of hosting a prestigious championship in the city.
That will be accomplished prize money of $ 6,500, and this weekend at what organizers are calling one of the championships in state history, with more than 100 entrants, from players to specialists. "We're hoping this generates some interest in table tennis and bring more people to the match," said Simone, program manager in the Valley Youth Center the previous 26 decades. "We have 40 to 50 serious gamers, but we are aware that there are many more out there - https://github.com/pingpongsport/bestpingpong/wiki/Best-Ping-Pong-Tables-&-How-To-Choose.
We'd like to buy our own building, have more tables and have leagues." He had been nearly unbeatable in Minnesota while attending Morgan Park Junior High and Duluth Denfeld High School. "I grew up playing hockey, but what I love about table tennis is that the speed, the competitiveness and the chance to play one-on-one," said Eider, a former Section 7AA tennis single champion, who played two years at St. Scholastica. "Anyone you speak to thinks table tennis is a great game. To gain in popularity, you need to get the attention of kids and you want somewhere to play."
Sonnet has played for 22 years. He says pros can earn from $25,000 to $90,000 a year, and before taking a job he expects to play one more time in the top level. Olson has lived in Duluth for almost two Decades and playstable tennis at the Valley Youth Center, located on North Central Avenue in the Laura MacArthur Elementary School construction.
