Team Leicestershire: U13 and U16 Girls Table Tennis Finals

This week we held the U13 & U16 Girls Team Leicestershire Table Tennis County Finals at Knighton Park Table Tennis Club. Team Leicestershire provides opportunities for young people who aspire towards further progression and success in sport & physical activity by providing the traditional competitive school sport offer across Leicestershire, Leicester City and Rutland.

4 teams across both age groups, who had all won their local area qualifiers, competed to become county champions. Thank you and congratulations to everyone that took part. Mike and Tim from the schools table tennis association were both extremely impressed by the standard of matchplay, as well as the sportsmanship and respect shown throughout the competition. A particular mention must go to the Beauchamp U13 side for competing against girls from the older age group and more than holding their own. Lots of games went all the way to a decider, demonstrating how close the matches were. A count back was needed when it finally came to calculating the results!

The final standings for the events were:

U13 Girls

  1. Beauchamp (O&W)

U16 Girls

  1. Beauchamp (O&W)
  2. Crown Hills (E Leics)
  3. Welland Park (B&H)

Good luck to both Beauchamp sides who will go on to represent Leicestershire and Rutland at the Regional Competition!

Many thanks also go to Mike and Tim from the schools table tennis association and Knighton Park TTC for hosting us at this event! As well as all the staff who came along and helped umpire games.

We hope everyone enjoyed the tournament and hopefully we will see you again soon at a future Team Leicestershire County Final event.
