Sporting stars from both Emirates Western Force and Perth Glory generously gave of their time today to battle it out for sporting supremacy on our 140 ping pong table, all in the name of charity.

City of Perth Lord Mayor Lisa Scaffidi refereed the game that pitted Western Force players Sam Wykes and Nick Cummins against Glory players Shane Smeltz and Jacob Burns to raise funds for the Salvation Army Christmas Appeal in a unique Ping Pong on Public Art feature match.

"It just wasn't my day," Wykes said.

"I not sure if the net was regulation size, every ball I hit just keep smacking into it," he joked.

"Cummo was doing alright and I was trying my hardest to back him up but there wasn't much ping in my pong."

Members of the public can play a game of ping pong for a gold coin donation at the artwork installed at Globe Lane at 140 - situated just off the Murray Street Mall - until Saturday 24 December. 

Check out all the action.
