Is anyone interested in playing "social" table tennis? The Angmering Table Tennis Club is running a session each week for adults (say 18 to 80 years old!). The session takes place on Mondays (starting 12 October 2009) between 1.30pm and 3.30pm in the main Hall.
This activity would NOT be suitable for regular league players or anyone who is looking for really competitive games. This is for players of lesser to medium ability who would be quite happy to come along to the Centre for some doubles games and have a bit of fun, burn off a few calories, and have a chat with old or new friends. There may also be the opportunity for some singles games although the sessions are primarily aimed at doubles.
If you have not played since your youth or for a number of years, this activity may be for you. Three tables are being provided plus bats and balls, so there would be no need to buy any equipment unless you would like to have your own.
Games are played under the old rules, i.e. five serves each and scoring up to 21. This is done deliberately to give everybody a chance of a decent length game. There is no rota system, or anything that makes playing or organising an arduous affair. This is just a couple of hours of relaxation and fun!
The cost for the session is £2 per person. If you wish to arrive a bit later or leave a bit earlier, this is no problem. Just come when it suits you during the two hour session.
Membership is being limited to ensure that everybody gets a good number of games during a session. However, places are available at present. So, if anyone is interested in this activity, please ring Neil & Rita Rogers-Davis on (01903) 771935.
