Scarborough Table Tennis Premier Club

Early season run out at Darlington for
Phoebe Aleksandra and Chloe.
First competition of the season to see where the training is going and get some much needed match play.
Phoebe played in a group of 8 Mxd event (only 2 girls) in the U19s and was ranked 6th.
A very encouraging start with a win over Seb Radacanu 3/2 was continued through the day
with 3 more wins including a 3/1 against YBCL
team mate Dorian Cheung.
Phoebe finished in a very credible 3rd place.

Aleksandra and Chloe have been training very hard for the new season and showed signs of this both winning 4 matches each.
Aleksandra had good wins over Lucy Curtis and
Oscar Woodier and Chloe had wins over Aleksandra and John Graham in 5.
Plenty of match play to work on for the girls but a promising start Al round 🏓

Final Tuesday session for Vanessa at the Premier club !

Tuesdays has now finished for the summer break and Vanessa said good bye to the club as she is leaving with her family for Romania in the summer holidays.
She will be missed at training and future matches next season.
A definite one for the future and I hope she can continue to train and develop her game.
She always has a happy and outgoing demeanor and great focus when training.
Good luck for the future Vanessa !!
