Table Tennis South Australia (TTSA) is the leading body of Table Tennis in South Australia, providing the key elements to sustain and grow our sport in SA. If we want to continue to enjoy our sport, and also grow it, TTSA needs support via the affiliations of clubs and players, but also via sponsorship from local businesses.
OOAK Shop are now proud to have grown to a size where we can become official sponsors of TTSA. Furthermore, to encourage TTSA affiliations and membership, we're offering the following discounts:
If you're a TTSA member (TTSA membership is something you pay for if you wish to play Winter Pennant or TTSA endorsed Tournaments), you're entitled to a 10% discount off items for personal use.
If you're an active TTSA coach that either coaches for TTSA or for clubs, you're entitles to a 15% discount off items for your personal use, or items used for coaching.
If you're an TTSA affiliated club you are entitled to 20% discount off all items that are required for running the club, as well as 20% off goods that are purchased for re-sale to members. Goods must be purchased by the Club Official nominated by the club.
*Discount is offered for goods only (not shipping) and available for most of our range, except for some brands and items listed below, which cannot be discounted. Discount is off the regular price, and does not include items on 'sale'.
You simply need to mention to us (Luna or Alex) that you're a TTSA member, and you'll get the discount off the goods. If you buy via the Online Shop (preferred) and choose the Bank Transfer/Deposit option, or pay via the Cheque or Cash option, we will work out the correct amount you need to pay and will advise you, so that you can simply pay the adjusted amount.
Unfortunately if you wish to pay via Paypal or Credit Card directly in our Online Shop, it's too complex for our system to work out the correct discounts, so it's usually easiest to just pay the full amount, and we'll refund you the difference. Contact us if you have any queries on this.
Coaches provide a vital service to the SA table tennis community, often sacrificing their own time and money to provide this service to clubs and individuals. Since we want to support these people, and encourage more players to get involved in coaching, we offer some further discount.
Clubs are the cornerstone of our table tennis community, so to support them we'd like to offer further discount on items required to run the clubs. We'd also like to offer this discount on equipment that clubs have for re-sale. Because all our clubs are not-for-profit, all profits made on sales goes back into our sport, so this is a worthy cause and benefits everyone.
Yes we are happy to assemble bats for you, which includes edge tape and a professional finish. If you've bought the rubber and/or blade from us, gluing + edge tape is free of charge. We use proper table tennis glue, so that rubbers are easily removable.
