Many have said that Scott Preiss is the “Harlem Globetrotter” of Table
Tennis with his electrifying display of his skill in the sport of
Table Tennis. Scott has been dazzling audiences with table tennis
comedy and trick shots for more than 30 years and has performed more
than 3000 table tennis exhibitions and clinics worldwide. In 2017
Scott was inducted into the USA Table Tennis Hall of Fame for his
contribution to the Sport Worldwide. Scott, a former trainer for the
US World Table Tennis Team, was also a full time coach at the US
Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs and is one of the sport’s
greatest ambassadors.
Scott has appeared on hundreds of TV features including three times on
Regis and Kathy Lee, The Best Damn Sports Show, The Ellen Degeneres
Show, the Donny and Marie Show, The CBS Morning News, ESPN and many
other CBS, NBC, and ABC specials throughout the United States.
Scott also has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, New York
Newsday, the Chicago Tribune and more.
Scott’s past performances include shows for the International Olympic
Committee, US Olympic Committee, UBS Bank, Wells Fargo, Blue Cross
Blue Shield, AIG, Nike Corporation, Intel Corporation, General Motors,
IBM, General Dynamics, Walmart, 7-Eleven, BP Oil, the NBA playoff
halftime shows and many more.
Scott combines comedy and athleticism in all of his shows. A few of
Scott’s trademarks are his serves from 100 feet away from the table,
and his behind the back smashes and his uncanny ability to work and interact
with the audience in many of his challenge matches. In addition Scott
has an array of trick paddles including a paddle the size of a ball
and a paddle bigger than a tennis racket. Scott’s shows are extremely
interactive and nobody leaves without laughing and smiling. Many of
his performances are with his son Austin who has traveled the world
with his father performing for many military bases throughout Europe
and even in Korea.
