U19 Table Tennis Boys Champions!

On Sunday, our U19 boys’ table tennis team of Will, Horace, Nikita and Jay faced a two-hour journey to Bristol, to take on Bromsgrove School, Worcestershire; Ernest Bevin College, Wandsworth; and Budmouth College, Weymouth. They played on-and-off from 10am to 5pm, but sadly we were not able to progress to the National Finals, next month in Leicester. As you can imagine, the overall quality of play from the wide range of age groups present, for both boys and girls, was genuinely amazing. Many of those players present last Sunday will go on to represent England.

The long, two-hour-plus journey home was offset by a Burger King meal at the half-way point. We won’t forget that they’re still U19 Boys Champions for Berkshire, East Sussex, Essex, Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Kent, Surrey & West Sussex – meaning they’re the best U19 Boys Table Tennis team in a population of over 10 million people, which is pretty impressive. 

Well done Will, Horace, Nikita and Jay!
