VIDEO RELEASE
Fun with Pong: The How-to Series led by SPiN's Ping Pong Pro, Soo Yeon Lee 
To spread ping pong fever to the masses, SPiN is releasing several fun instructional videos showcasing step by step tips and tricks to learn how to play the game all led by Soo Yeon Lee, model, SPiN's ping pong ambassador and one of the world's best table tennis players. Each 'how to' video — "How to hit a forehand", "How to hit a backhand", "How to hit with topspin" and more are performed in a comical manner— wearing crazy costumes from Cops & Robbers, Samurai Ninjas to 80's-inpsired workout gear. SPiN is known as an iconic ping pong culture, lifestyle and movement, which has redefined the game to know no boundaries. It's a sport that connects people regardless of age, gender or background. It's about having fun, not taking life too seriously, making connections and embracing contradictions. Videos are available to watch at SPiNtutorials.com.

Play for Play—Complimentary Ping Pong for All
At participating SPIN Locations
SPiN will be opening its doors at their participating locations for individuals looking to go from spectator to full-fledged champion. "Play for Play"—a partnership with UNICEF USA, celebrates the idea of guests playing ping pong to empower children to play around the globe. On April 6^th, SPiN invites you to pay a $20 entry fee which will include complimentary ping pong, access to SPiN's resident pros, music and other surprise elements throughout the night from 9:00pm to close. This is the first of multiple engagements throughout the year to support UNICEF's mission to save and protect children around the world.

TABLE DONATIONS
SPiN's mission to spread ping pong within the local communities is reflected in a table donation program, where inner city schools will be receiving STIGA ping pong tables to support underprivileged youth. In New York, SPiN will generously make table donations through its ongoing partnership with the AYTTO, which has made history by creating ping pong as an official varsity sport in NYC. All other locations will source and work with the local community to bring the premise of celebrating play to the community youth who need it the most.
