Caroline Puygrenier

Born and started playing table tennis in France, I have been playing now for nearly 40 years.
Always enjoy the fun side of the sport and how it gets people around a table for fun, as well as the serious competitions (county and British league).

However since I started, I always noticed an imbalance when it came to players representation (very few women, difficult to get youngsters interested and very little minorities)
