Welcome to the North East Area Development page.

My name is Lauren Evans and I am your Area Manager. The North East covers Cleveland, Durham, Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Northumberland and Tyne and Wear.

My Table Tennis journey began when I was eight years old in a youth club in Tamworth, West Midlands. After finding a passion for the sport, I went on to play for my county and region and entered many competitions up and down the country. I represented Draycott Table Tennis Club in Junior and Women’s British League and continued to play at Nottingham Trent University, where I also coached after graduation.

I am very excited to help clubs, leagues, communities, and partners to bring the new Table Tennis United Strategy to life and I hope that, with a collaborative approach, we can get more people playing the sport, increase the level of performance in the North East and continue to create a community that feels safe and inspiring.

This page will feature: news articles, case studies, updates, resources, funding opportunities, upcoming events and more.

North 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.
