Welcome to SOLA TAKKYU HOUSE!

We are the first table tennis school in Tsuchiura. Many of our members come saying "I want to try it as a hobby" or "I played in my junior high school club and want to start again." SOLA is a table tennis school where beginners are very welcome. Many youth also join our junior classes to train seriously for national tournaments.

What makes SOLA special

Tables for everyone

So that children and adults alike can enjoy playing, we have height-adjustable tables and wheelchair-accessible tables.

Knee-friendly floor

Our cushioned flooring puts less strain on your knees.

Air-conditioned and heated

Play in comfort even in midsummer or midwinter.

Free racket rental

Even if you've never held a racket, you can join with confidence.

Easy to get to

We are within walking distance of Tsuchiura Station, and by car we are just off the main road in front of the station, so we are very easy to reach from Ushiku, Tsukuba, Kasumigaura, and Ami. Whether you want to improve your game or just stay healthy and get some exercise, we'd be glad to see you.
