Area Manager (London)
Contact Johnathon
Hi, and welcome to the London Area Development page.
I’m Johnathon Driscoll and I have the privilege of being the Area Manager for London which covers the 33 London Boroughs.
It is an exciting time to be a Club, League, Coach, Volunteer, School, or partner in the capital as Table Tennis England embarks on it’s new strategy Table Tennis United and the successful bid of the ITTF World Team Championship is 2026.
This page will be the go-to area for all things London. From news articles of what is happening in the area, case studies, upcoming events, useful resources, funding and much much more.
Having been involved in the sport since an 11-year-old, I have a real passion to see table tennis thrive and to build on the great work that is being delivered across London.
If you wanted to get in touch, please contact [email protected] or via phone on 07583899507
