Brief History

Paddle Palace is owned by Judy Hoarfrost. Judy was inducted into the USATT Hall of Fame as well as the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame. With numerous US Junior and Senior titles, Judy was a member of the US Team for ten years, and a member of the famous “Ping Pong Diplomacy” Team that made history in 1971. In the early 1970’s, her family opened a table tennis club in downtown Portland, Oregon. It was named “Paddle Palace” because of its palatial home in an historic Elks Club Building, in a ballroom with chandeliers and ornate carvings on the high ceiling. This successful full-time club was a magnet for players and teams from around the world and a center for training, leagues, and tournaments. Paddle Palace developed a computer rating system for the Pacific Northwest that became the model for the current USATT ratings system.

Paddle Palace evolved from club to full-time equipment business in the late 1970’s. Paddle Palace was early to become computerized, and jumped onto the internet even before the advent of shopping-cart technology. We continue to work to employ the best technology, shipping methods, communication methods, and business practices, all with the aim of offering our customers the best possible table tennis shopping experience.

More About Paddle Palace

While equipment sales and serving our customers is our #1 focus in business, Paddle Palace also contributes to growing the sport. Paddle Palace is the ball sponsor for USA Table Tennis and the US Open and US Nationals, and is involved in many tournament and player sponsorships. In 2016, Paddle Palace opened Paddle Palace Club, a full-time professional club located right next door to the Paddle Palace equipment company.

I'm 77 years old. I don't move as well as I once did and so I need equipment that is geared to defense. I needed a backhand rubber that was good at blocking and chopping and a forehand rubber that was easy to loop. I needed a ball I could spin easily.

Why Trust Verified Reviews?

Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.

Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.

As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:

Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.

Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.

So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
