This new location in the Orangefair Mall is much nicer, spacious, and feels a lot bigger and organized than the old store.

She asked if I could stop by Target on the way to the park but I said, "No! We're boycotting Target!" and I went with the next best thing, BIg 5. I called to check and see if they sold kites and the guy that answered said, "Tights? Yeah we sell tights. Like workout..." and I interjected and yelled, "KITES not TIGHTS! KITES!! The thing that you fly at the park!" and he said, yes they sold kites. I arrived 5 minutes later and was greeted by one of the male employees who asked, "Hi, can we help you find anything?" and I said, "Yes, kites please," and he said, "Oh yeah, tights are right over ..." and I yelled, "KITES!! NOT TIGHTS!" He laughed and directed me to the kites. I ended up buying some Velcro mitt with a tennis ball and a cool pink frisbee as well. I think I paid around $20. No line, not crowded, fully stocked, tons of parking and the best employees!

It wasn't that busy but we walked around the store to see what else they had. It's a nice store, they have the outdoors equipment that you could need or want. Asked for help to try to find a broken in glove for him but they had no idea what we were talking about. So we got the one that his dad showed us they were looking at. So much to look at I was tempted on a long board but would rather get it at a skate shop. But really like this location close by, small parking lot but the same as Target so there is plenty of parking. Thank you so much for all your help in helping us find the perfect glove and sizes. Even though we couldn't find a broken in one we got a gift receipt so hopefully they can go back and find the one they want. Appreciate all your help and friendly customer service. Have a beautiful day, be kind to everyone :) Aloha

They've also brought in renowned coach Danny Salloum as the new director, and his influence is immediately noticeable.

When I first started, I was just hitting casually with friends and never imagined myself competing in tournaments. Through iTennis's high-performance academy, I was encouraged to take my game to the next level.

(This is no easy task, I have a ranked professional racquetball player and an elite badminton coach who work with me, but I believe in myself and the power of learning new things as they relate to self-improvement). I signed up for a month which means I can go any time and my intent was to just work on the basics with the robot that shoots ping pong balls at me so I can work on my form. The owner always tries to find people for me to rally with or she will make an effort to rally with me if no one is available. And believe me, I'm definitely above the average in my office, but I am definitely the worst player at this academy and though many are nice enough to rally with me despite spending excessive amounts of time picking up the balls that I mis-hit, I can definitely tell that I am not anyone's preferred rallying partner. Some of the players there will be direct enough to just say, "okay, I'm going to stop rallying with you." and I respect that, it's their right and the only one who is gaining any table-tennis related skills from rallying with me is ME. For the record, I think table tennis is a very fun sport and I wish it had a bigger following, the combination of hand-eye coordination and footwork required to be great is the closest thing to fighting without the actual fighting. I'd really love to see the table tennis community grow and I think that the Fullerton Table Tennis Academy is a great place to exercise, train, and meet people.

Both coaches are not just good good players and coaches but also they are very professional, and patient with the boys.

They kids game have improved and as long as the kids still like to come and play with Mike and Barbara, I will continue bringing them. We are happy customers. I have actually started taking lessons myself with both coaches as time permits, I played some Tennis in my younger years but with no formal training. Let me tell you that my game has improved, they managed to correct many of my bad habits and I now started to enjoy the game more. One last note, it takes years to play Tennis good, and takes patience and persistence to master it. Coaches like Mike and Barbara will help you indeed, but the player (and his family if s/he is a kid) needs to have it in them. The coach is not a magician. Good luck everyone.

He teaches out of his backyard court in Yorba Linda, which is honestly awesome -- super close for me, private, quiet, and just a great environment to actually focus. What I like most is his coaching style. Scott doesn't give those vague, generic "rotate more" or "use your legs" comments that don't actually help. His feedback is specific, actionable, and something I can implement on the very next ball. He adapts to how I hit instead of forcing a one‑size‑fits‑all technique. My backhand has never been my best shot, and I'm not pretending it's suddenly my favorite shot-- but I could feel improvement right away. He also got me rethinking my forehand swing path in a way that's already giving me more consistency, which is exactly what I need to build a reliable rally ball for doubles and get my fitness back up. Scott's just a genuinely nice guy too. Easy to talk to, easy to work with, and zero ego. If you're trying to get back into tennis or level up your game, I highly recommend him.
