Area Manager (South East)
Contact Alan
Hi, and welcome to the South East Area Development page.
I joined Table Tennis England last August as the Adult Participation Officer and moved into the Area Manager role in February this year. I have an extremely keen interest in development and quite simply want to get as many people playing this wonderful sport as possible. I have particular interest in coaching and how we can bring the love of table tennis to players both young and old.
Here we are looking to provide a great focus on all things South East, covering Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Surrey, Sussex and Kent. Whether that is a club doing wonderful things, a local league running recruitment drives, or simply an individual who warrants a special mention.
South 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.
