Hi, and welcome to the East Area Development page.

I joined Table Tennis England in November 2023 to undertake the position of East Area Manager at Table Tennis England. I am really excited to be taking on the role and hopefully play a crucial role in developing table tennis provision across the east area.

I am particularly looking forward to working with clubs to increase participation and develop sustainable initiatives/programmes, leading to more people playing the sport. I’m looking forward to working with and supporting everybody connected with table tennis in Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, Rutland, Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Hertfordshire and Nottinghamshire.


East Local Organising Group

Local Organising Groups (LOGs) are formed of volunteers from the table tennis community and external partners and organisations who work with us to bring table tennis alive locally. They are there to provide support and guidance to the Area Manager and take an action-led approach to helping deliver the Local Delivery Plan.
