Pupils at the Bishop Bell School in Eastbourne has responded
well to the new League competition on offer in their new
community table tennis club.
The league has kicked off
with some excellent and enthusiastic performances with a
total of 6 teams currently taking part.
ETTA Coach,
Kevin Haffenden, has been delighted with the response from the
young people. ' For many this is their first experience of
competitive play and they have responded well. Although we are
starting with 6 teams we are happy to add more teams in the
early stages if the demand continues to grow. Bishop Bell
reminds me of the start of Battle Table Tennis Club and as they
say 'from little acorns grow'.
The school is awaiting
news of a grant application which will enable the expansion of
of junior table tennis at both the new club and in local primary
schools.
Our thanks goes to the hard work within the
school of Mr Mcalone who has developed so much opportunity for
his pupils over the years.
