This will be my final Area blog before I depart for pastures new in February. I wanted to take this opportunity to thank the table tennis community and membership for their support and collaboration since I’ve been in the role since November 2023. There have been some notable successes, of which I would like to highlight below. These include but are not limited too:
- Targeted work with select Essex Boys & Girls Clubs
- L1 Umpire Courses at St Neots, BATTS and Highfield (in February 2026)
- New Ping Pong Parlours in Welwyn Garden City and Stevenage
- Luton U11 Development Competitions (in conjunction with Luton TTC)
- The development of the Woodbridge Ping Hub (in conjunction with Woodbridge TTC)
- Inclusive Table Tennis Festivals with Active Norfolk
Moving forwards, I wish the sport of table tennis and the table tennis community nothing but the best. Thank you for the opportunity to work alongside you for the past 2 and a bit years in helping to develop the sport.
Yours In Table Tennis
Chris
