Our Story
T2 is the culmination of one man's dream to realize the vast potential of Table Tennis and the fortitude that is required to make that dream a reality. Renowned Chinese shipping veteran, Frank Ji, by all measure is the sport's biggest fan. And although Table Tennis participation is on the rise in China and across the globe, it has been perceived as an antiquated recreational sport.
It was as if the table tennis I knew from when I was a child had not changed one bit, while the world around it had already transformed so much. I don't treat my involvement in table tennis as an investment, because you can't see what the road ahead is like anyway. But if I continue working at it like this, perhaps success is not far away.
