William, Amy and Artur in the Regional Training Day
Amy, William and Artur were WTTC’s presence at the Regional Training Day organised jointly by ETTA’s South and South West regions. Amy, despite her young age, is already a veteran on such training days. However, for William and Artur, this was a new experience that they enjoyed very much.
The quality of the youngsters attending the session was really high but coaches were always able to show new things that could improve everyone’s game.
On Saturday 5th March, the Waterside Table Tennis Club hosted an ETTA Regional Training Day organised jointly by two regions, South and South West. Alison Broe (South Regional Coach) and Paul Whiting (South West Regional Coach) provided a challenging but entertaining day to almost 40 children. Alison and Paul had help from Mike Smith and James Lewis (South West region) and John Fox and Jeff Davies (Waterside TTC).
Children enjoyed every minute of the day
Players were grouped according to their technical level but all had opportunity to work in different sessions: foot work, robot and multiball, spin to win, and serve. Robot was certainly their favourites but still hard work.
Multiball and robot practice
At the end of the day, all left very tired but with a smile on their faces and the feeling that it was a worthy session that improved their abilities with their bats.
We hope we will be able to organise more sessions later in the year.
Waterside TTC is a club for all! Everybody is welcome, whatever their age and standard. Just come and enjoy a good game of table tennis!
