Comments from the past camps:
"Eric Owens' Foundation Mini Camp was outstanding. Eric teaches a very easy to understand and practical approach to winning at table tennis. The camp consisted of lecture & demonstration and also some time on the table practicing the techniques Eric presented. Receiving immediate feedback from one of the best on what you have just learned was great. This hands-on approach made the camp very worth while. If you want to step your game up and learn the correct footwork, strategies and strokes, take the course!" Matt Weerts
"Some of the mysteries of table tennis are revealed, even some you didn't know existed!" Anonymous
"This (camp) was very good, I am changing the way I practice to play in tournaments!" Anonymous

Serious Equipment for World-Class Play!
Does equipment make a difference? Absolutely! Professional rackets are lighter, balanced and provide more power and spin than rackets bought at your local "big-box" sports store. World class players like Zoran Primorac (shown on the right with myself and Dobri Kljaic, Zoran's practice partner for many years) depend on Butterfly rubber and blades to help him win games with speed, precision and authority. The Butterfly Primorac blade is one of the most popular in the world. Combined with Sriver rubber, you'll have a one of the best combinations for world-class play!
Try one today, and see for yourself!
