Recently we had our 24hr Sportathon with Badminton and Squash, raising money for the Children's Hospice Acorns. Warwick Table Tennis raised 510 pounds but altogether with Squash and Badminton we raised a lot more. Thank you to everyone who donated and look forward to hopefully continuing this tradition next year! Thanks to our Sport's Officer Emma and Warwick Sport for helping to organise it as well.

ESCAPE ROOM SOCIAL!

I'm sure that (like me) you've all been missing the WTTC social scene terribly, so we're bringing you the first sober social of Term 2! We shall be testing your cunning and cleverness as we pit our wits against an escape room! (And avenge ourselves against the broken Snake game from last year... if you know you know😢)

The venue is Clue HQ Coventry, and we shall be going on Saturday 14th January (Week 1). We're hoping to do this around 6pm, but this will be confirmed when booking.

It is £70 per room, and depending on numbers we will book 1-3 rooms and split the cost. To book your place, please message Josh Bridges (Whatsapp: +447361235513) and transfer me £17.50. If the cost per person ends up being less then I shall refund you the remainder after the social.

Looking forward to an awesome Term 2!
