2018 Fall Coconut Cup Washington Ping-Pong Open will be held on October 06, 2018 at the Great Washington Metro Area.
All teams will be divided into two divisions according to the average rating of the best three players in each team. Division A – rating above 1800, but the top two players’ average rating must be under 2300; Division B – rating below 1800. The competitions for Division B and Division A will be held on Saturday October 06, 2018 at Maryland Table Tennis Center, 18761-Q North Frederick Road, Gaithersburg, MD 20879. Please see the attached for the registration forms.
As before, the competition is team-based, with 3 to 5 players each team and five matches each game, limiting 3 players from each Division A team for each game and up to 5 players from each Division 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.
Here are some additional notes,
1. The participation agreement must be signed by each player at the front desk, so please read it first.
2. Three-player team format for Division A. That is, only three players are allowed in each team game. Division B may allow more than three players in each team game.
3. The time may be 9:00am-9:00pm 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.
4. 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.

众所周知，乒乓球是中华第一国球，乒乓球运动更是一项国民运动。“椰树杯”华府乒乓球公开赛自举办以来，秉承“以球会友，筹集善款，强身健体，重在参与”为宗旨，以促进球友交流为己任，坚持“友谊第一，比赛第二“的原则，被誉为华府体坛每年不可或缺的乒坛盛会。
自椰树杯公开赛创办以来，广大乒乓球爱好者的积极参与及中国大使馆和众多关注乒乓球运动的商业组织及华人社区团体的持续赞助和热情关注一直让我们倍感光荣。我们还有幸邀得华盛顿同乡会总会作为我们的协办单位支持这次比赛。在组织者和参与者的共同努力下，其影响不断扩大，已成为华府地区一项传统赛事，吸引了大华府地区的广大乒乓球爱好者和球迷踊跃参加。其中既有七八岁的初生牛犊不怕虎的初学者，也有前国家队队员及大运会运动员等职业选手；既有以健身为目的乒乓球爱好者，也有持“以球交友，比赛会友”为初衷的运动者。其中包括马州、维州和Potomac等乒乓球俱乐部的高水平球友，更让不少大华府地区的各路英雄豪杰慕名而至。除此之外，大华府地区众多校友会和同乡会也成为了赛事的另一批新生力量，比赛競争更显异常激烈，赛事人气愈旺，关注度愈高。
“椰树杯”乒乓球公开赛还吸引了包括越南、印度、巴基斯坦、美国、南美、欧洲等来自五湖四海的国际友人齐聚一堂，逐渐成为一项国际赛事！
另外，“椰树杯”乒乓球公开赛除了促进体育文化交流之外，也积极为慈善事业尽一份力。海南同乡会将每届比赛所集善款捐赠给最有需要的地方，所及之处曾包括国内的寒门学子、汶川地震灾区的受灾者、海地地震、日本海啸及最近甘肃地震的受灾者及“威马逊”台风受灾的海南家乡地区等。
开赛时间：2018年10月06日
我们诚挚欢迎广大华人、各国友人踊跃参加或前来观摩交流。
