2022 Fall Coconut Cup Washington Ping-Pong Open will be held on Saturday, October 29th, 2022 at the Great Washington Metro Area.
All teams will be divided into two divisions according to the average rating of the best two players in each team. Division A – Top 2 players average 1800 & above must register for; Division B – all other teams.

As before, Division A's & B's competition is team-based, with 3 to 5 players each team and three out of five matches each game, limiting 3 players and up to 5 players from each Division A and B team for each game. The Coconut Cup starts with round robin in groups and then play-off.
Hainan Association, the organizer, is trying to create this opportunity for non-professional table tennis players, regardless gender and age, in Washington area to meet, to absorb more public attention to table tennis, and to raise some money to help students and school libraries in rural China or USA.

1. The participation agreement must be signed by each player at the front desk, so please read it first.
2. 3 - 5 members per team for Division A or B

5. Single match limits 32. Players who register for A or B may register for Single as well.
6. The time may be 9:00 am-9:00 pm and the final time be announced when we have the schedules ready. Please be in time. If your team is late, your team will lose one single match for each 10 minutes. That means, if your team is 30 minutes late, your team is 0:3 to the competitor.
7. The organizer will provide 3-star Butterfly/Double Happiness balls and the standard tables will be provided by the club centers. You may come to the center and check it ahead.
