MFTTA (formerly MPTTA) is the second largest table tennis club in Victoria serving the entire Mornington Peninsula and Frankston City areas. We have world class facilities including leading edge international tournament quality tables, outstanding lighting and courts in a purpose built stadium located in picturesque Mornington. Our club has received accolades for its all-inclusive culture - we are a community club which welcomes people of any age, gender, race, religion, and ability including All Abilities (people with disability), LGBTQIA+, indigenous peoples, refugees and so on. MFTTA is one of the leaders in providing a community service for health and well-being through sport. As part of our goals we run programs to encourage participation by All Abilities people, women and girls, older people, and families especially including single parents. We also run state, national and international events and many tournaments. We are a non-profit incorporated association largely run by volunteers for the community.
