Testimonials
“We just love the ping pong tables! They are gorgeous! People were playing ping pong any time we glanced in that direction. We are very proud of the park this far, and it is just so heart-warming to hear “happy camper” stories. Also: the POPP team were a dream to collaborate with.”
- Fiona Robbé, Director, Architects of Arcadia
“I can’t think of a day I
haven’t seen someone
using them.”
- Brad Pettitt, Mayor, City of Fremantle
“Since we installed our 2 POPP tables in Pioneer Park last year they have seen constant use. Friends will often meet for lunch in the park and then adjourn for a couple of games of ping pong before heading back to their jobs. Other users include a steady stream of students on their way home from school and pet owners out walking their dogs. Community members tend to congregate where they feel safe and where there is laughter, and in both cases the ping pong tables cater for that!”
- David Gibson, Walla Walla resident, WA
“The first table went so
well that the university...
made plans to acquire a
further two soon after.”
- Emma Jakobi, Project Manager, Curtin University
“The ping pong table is our legacy to the
Blacktown community...
it is something that will
be enjoyed by everyone
in the community,
encouraging them to get
active and be social for
many years to come.”
- Rebel Hanlon, President, Blacktown Lions Club
“The POPP table has been fantastic for the
students, they are often
using it after school as well
as during recess and lunch
time. My only issue is that
it looks like I need to buy
at least two more to cater
for the demand.”
- David Caught, Assistant Principal, Hallam Senior College
“We had a lot of fold up tables spread across ... our large campus, but their capacity to stand up to the level of use and exposure to the elements was pretty limited. The POPP [HERO] tables not only honoured the students’ interes by offering a long-term commitment to the facilities they needed, they also gave us a more robust option as well as a really visually appealing addition to our built environment.”
