Testimonials
“I joined this club when I was 13 years old in because I wanted to find a sport I enjoyed and was passionate about. I have met some nice people of different ages and I get along well with them. The coaches are very experienced and make sure you know what you are doing. I feel I have improved a lot. It is not only my technique that has improved but also my social skills. I’m glad I’ve joined this club. I will continue to practice and get better at table tennis. “
“I joined this club when I was 12. I thought I would try a different sport and I’m so glad I did and came to this club. over the 6 years I’ve been here it’s been great to see the club expand to a great success. It’s great to be part of with such a friendly table tennis club and due to the quality of coaches I have improved my game hugely and enjoy playing in the league. “
