Plus the infamous ‘best customised bat trophy’. You might say it’s an opportunity to meet and mix with fellow creative beings but actually King Pong is an underground secret tournament, (like Karate Kid / Fight Club) that nobody knows about...yet. The premise is deceptively simple; a knock-out tournament with the winner being crowned ‘King Pong’ and walking away with the adulation of a baying crowd and hand-made trophy*. Is that it? Not really; you see all players must register and be sent a blank paddle (level playing field) for customisation. This is highly important and the core rule of King Pong. The best customised bat will be voted for and win another hand-made trophy*. Miss Peapod's Kitchen Cafe, Penryn FAQs • What are the rules?
