Dear Supporters of the US Table Tennis Hall of Fame,
We hope this letter finds you well. Your ongoing support has been invaluable as we continue to honor the athletes, officials, and contributors who have shaped the history of table tennis in the United States.
Two months ago, in partnership with the Houston International Table Tennis Academy and the Si and Patty Martinez Wasserman Youth Championship, we hosted our annual induction dinner. We recognized Glenn Cowan, Stellan Bengtsson, and Dennis Taylor as new inductees, and Patty Martinez Wasserman received the Mark Mathews Lifetime Achievement Award. If you missed it, you can watch the dinner here.
This event was made possible by Major League Table Tennis (MLTT), our Event Sponsor. We also thank Senoda Printing and Donna and David Sakai for their generous contributions. We’re pleased to welcome new board members Christian Lillieroos, Lily Yip, and Derek May, and express our gratitude to Yvonne Kronlage, Dean Johnson, and the late Dick Hicks for their service.
In 2025, we’re excited to support the Minnesota State High School Table Tennis Team Championship in February, led by Paralympic Gold Medalist Mitchell Seidenfeld. Additionally, we’re preserving history by digitizing Don Larson’s incredible 60-year collection of table tennis materials.
