A table tennis table has a main panel defining a playing surface and a pair of opposing edges. A frame is connected to the playing surface for supporting the playing surface in a horizontal orientation, a pair of substantially rigid auxiliary panels, and adjustable mounting elements mounting the auxiliary panels to the frame along respective ones of the edges so that the auxiliary panels each have a first orientation extending substantially perpendicularly relative to the main panel and an alternate second orientation substantially coplanar with the main panel to extend the playing surface of the main panel. A table tennis net is connected perpendicular to the playing surface and extends transversely along a midline thereof.

Table tennis table, conversion kit and associated method

A table tennis table includes a main panel having a main table length and a pair of opposing major edges. A frame is connected to the main panel to supporting the main panel in a horizontal orientation. A pair of auxiliary panels are provided with a length substantially equal to the main table length. Adjustable mounting elements on the auxiliary panels and coupled to the frame mount the auxiliary panels to the frame along the major edges. The auxiliary panels have a first orientation extending substantially perpendicularly relative to the main panel and upwardly from the main panel to form rebound surfaces. The auxiliary panels additionally have a second orientation substantially coplanar with the main panel to laterally extend a playing surface of the main panel. Braces are connected the auxiliary panels to bracing the auxiliary panels alternately in the first orientation and the second orientation.
