    ACROSS THE NET Melton Table Tennis August 2017 Edition 37 WINTER SEASON ENDS, CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS, POINTS DIFFERENCE, & GREAT ESCAPES In this edition we congratulate Leading Players, tell you why you should all attend the Club Championships, ponder over points differences, look at how table tennis helped to save lives, and much more. AN END TO THE WINTER SEASON We are already into the finals of the Winter season. I’m not making any predictions about the winners, but the Grand Finals on the 3rd of August should be a great night. The Leading Players for the Winter season have already been decided, and the winner in A Grade is Michael Louey, taking the honours over Chris Addis. Mitch Braini took out the B Grade award, with Graham Huggett just behind him, and Brian Guy dominated in C Grade. Congratulations to these deserving winners for a great season. CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS The annual 3 weeks of Club Championships is upon us. This is always a fun time of the year and there are some great trophies on offer. Week 1 on the 10th of August is the Handicap Championship. Every player has a chance of winning this, regardless of your standing in the club. Each player is given a handicap ranking and matches are played up to 31 points. Some top players may start on 0 or even a negative points score, while the lower rated players may start on up to 25 points. It’s fun to watch the top players sweating in these games, as they can’t afford to make a mistake.

WE’RE BACK Another year kicks off, and it’s going to be a big one. The practice nights were well attended and introduced quite a few new faces to the club. We are already underway with our Summer season, and it’s great to see the hall full of happy, competitive people enjoying themselves. Over the next few months we can hopefully unveil some new initiatives around the club. Stay tuned for news to come. PRESENTATION NIGHT A ROARING SUCCESS What a great night we had at our 2018 Presentation Night. Good food, marvellous music, great atmosphere, wonderful friends, and over 100 trophies going to nearly 60 very deserving winners. Our club band, Ping Pong had everyone entertained with some great music all night long. Many thanks to Simon Reich, John Batty and Josh Dias for playing some great tunes all through the night. And how lucky we were to have Olympian, Paralympian, and Commonwealth Games Gold Medalist, Melissa Tapper as our guest speaker. Milly certainly entertained and inspired us all with her story, and was very generous with her time, talking to members and posing for quite a lot of selfies. But the star of the night was the magnificent cake made by Andy Stewart.

  • ATTU Asian Table Tennis Championships 2019 Which Will Be Held on September 15- 22, 2019 at the Among Rogo Stadium, Yogyakarta Indonesia
    ABOUT ASIAN TABLE TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIPS The Asian Table Tennis Championships is a major biennial table tennis tournament in Asia and regarded as continental championships by the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF). Tracing its roots to the year 1952 when it was first organized by the Table Tennis Federation of Asia (TTFA), from 1972 onwards the Championships has been under the auspices of the Asian Table Tennis Union (ATTU). To date there are forty four (44) Association affiliated to ATTU which are divided into five (5) regional groupings. East Asia South East Asia South Asia West Asia Central Asia China Brunei Bangladesh Bahrain Afghanistan Hong Kong Cambodia Bhutan Iraq Iran Japan Indonesia India Jordan Kazakhstan South Korea Laos Maldives Kuwait Kyrgyzstan Macau Malaysia Nepal Lebanon Tajikistan Mongolia Myanmar Pakistan Oman Turkmenistan North Korea Philippines Sri Lanka Palestine Uzbekistan Chinese Taipei Singapore Qatar Thailand Saudi Arabia Vietnam Syria UAE Yemen Indonesia became the host of the 6th Asian Table Tennis Championships held in Jakarta way back in 1982. It was touted as a very successful tournament which also marked the elevation of Table Tennis in Indonesia during that period. With the hosting of the 2019 Asian Table Tennis Championships, the people behind the organization strongly believe that it would give a new lease of life to Table Tennis in the country and which would later on pave the way to making Indonesia as once again a powerhouse of this sport in Southeast Asia as well as a force to reckon with in continental and world events. Incidentally, the 2019 Asian Table Tennis Championships will also be a qualification tournament for the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics, thus maximum participations from the forty-four (44) member-Associations are expected.
