Olympic Park Circular Walk + Table Tennis (optional). If you like table tennis or want to give it a try, then this walk is for you. This circular walk includes an option of a social table tennis session (1 hour) at the end. We will meet at Rhodes Station, walk across the Bennelong Bridge, pass the Mellennium Parklands and various paths and lookouts around Olympic Park, and return via the picturesque river bank. For those who want to play table tennis, we will continue our journey to RTTC Table Tennis Academy. Table tennis is a moderately intense sport that suits all ages and provides great health benefits such as improving balance and hand-eye coordination, developing better reflexes, keeping the brain sharp and etc. It doesn't matter if you are an ardent Ping Pong fan or a novice, all levels are welcome as long as you like the challenge and want to enjoy the game. The cost of table tennis is $5 per person. We need to book tables in advance, so please register your interest by Monday of the activity week if you want to play table tennis. Note that there is a possibility that no tables are available at the time of our booking, so the earlier you can confirm the better. Racquets: BYO racquets if possible. But don't worry if you haven't got your own, spare ones will be arranged.
