European Youth Series Team win in Serbia for Ireland with our top Junior Peadar Sheridan in great form 💪💪 Well done coach Conn Higgins and Peadar & Ryan on an excellent run 🔥🔥 Peadar in last 16 of singles and KO of the mixed doubles tomorrow.. more to come 🏆

Victory sn**ched from the jaws of defeat to claim gold!!! The hot favourites Poland, who raced into a 6 sets to 2 lead with Sheridan narrowly losing in the fifth but claiming 2 very important sets for Ireland. A shift in momentum saw a masterclass of doubles where Li and Sheridan dismantled the Polish duo in a sweeping 3-0 Victory… the score was now on knife edge with Poland leading 6-5 but the brave Sheridan stepped up to face Polish no1 Cadet… With incredible steel and unfathomable skill, he delivered the narrowest of victories winning 3-1 to put Ireland 8-7 ahead on sets with ONE MATCH REMAINING! Ryan Li stepped up to the plate and with great encouragement from player and coach he performed with immense determination and focus with a polished performance of 3-0 to clinch the title for Ireland winning 11 sets to 7! The whole hall erupted in celebration to see the underdogs sn**ch the A final victory! Coach Conn Higgins was thrilled with Li’s last two performances, playing against an opponent three years older but credit must go to the amazing play of Sheridan who claimed 17/18 wins across the whole team event!

All the best, Rebecca! 🎓🏓

We gathered last night to wish Rebecca Scott the very best as she heads to university in England this week!

From her first sessions at Strandtown Primary to our senior performance squad and representing Northern Ireland at this year’s Commonwealth Championships, Rebecca has had a fantastic journey — with plenty more to come.

She’ll continue her table tennis alongside her studies, and we’re delighted she’ll still be wearing the Ormeau colours in the British League!

Good luck with this exciting next chapter, Rebecca 🏓👏

🏆 The Cathcart Award — Congratulations, Deirdre! 🏓

The Cathcart Award was kindly donated by the Cathcart family a few years back. Their son Owen, one of Ormeau’s most successful young players. Owen won the Swedish Junior Open, reached the world’s top 30 as a junior and now plays professionally in Sweden.

Each year, the award recognises a member who makes an outstanding voluntary contribution to our club—and we are delighted to present it to one of our very first members, Deirdre! ❤️

Deirdre has been an integral part of Ormeau’s story from the very beginning. She helped us launch our junior sessions by bringing along her grandchildren and their friends. She then arrived with her own friends, helping us establish our first adult session!

From providing food during our early Premier British League weekends and helping wherever needed, to regularly opening and closing our Social sessions, Deirdre has always been there for the club.

Coach Trevor was delighted to present Deirdre with the Cathcart Award last night in recognition of everything she has done.

Members like Deirdre are truly worth their weight in gold. Thank you for your loyalty, generosity and years of service to Ormeau—this award is thoroughly deserved! 👏

Two Fantastic NextGen Camps at Ormeau! 🏓

Over the past few weeks, we have hosted two brilliant NextGen camps for some of Ormeau’s most promising up-and-coming young players, alongside a few invited guests.

The players worked incredibly hard throughout both camps under the guidance of coaches Jennifer and Junior, developing their skills, movement and match play.

A special thank you to Ormeau performance players Chris, Jack, Euan, Toby and Peadar, who provided fantastic support and helped the younger players improve their games.

It was brilliant to see our experienced players giving something back and encouraging the next generation. Well done to everyone involved! 🏓
