Whitby Table Tennis Club make strong start to season
Whitby Table Tennis Club have made a good start to their season in the Scarborough & District Table Tennis League.
The club are once again fielding two teams, one in each of Divisions Two and Three with fixtures throughout the winter until next spring.
The Division Two team, Resolution, have been able to welcome a new player, Hugo Spark, whose experience as a player in the York Table Tennis League is standing him in good stead.
He joins seasoned campaigners John Hanson and Barry Davies.
In their first two matches they won one and drew one, leaving them currently in second place in the league.
The Division Three team, Endeavour, is being used to give experience to some of the club’s junior players alongside more experienced representatives.
Graeme Williams leads the team with Kevin Barleycorn but juniors Charlie Sedman and Henry Hinds have also featured to good effect.
Currently the side has a 100% record having won their opening two matches convincingly (10-0 and 8-2).
The future is looking bright for them and also for the whole club.
Main club nights continue to be on Tuesdays from 7pm to 9pm at Whitby School (Airy Hill site).
However, the club started a junior practice night on Wednesdays for an hour at 7pm and this is proving most popular, which is good to see.
All new players are welcome on either evening, for further details please contact Mike Stones on 0773-4651128.
