Young Players Serve Up Smiles at Primary School Table Tennis Festival

The second Worthing Table tennis Club, primary school festival took place on the 22nd of October at Bohunt school. This year the festival grew by 42% with well over 100 young people trying table tennis. 

The festival saw school teams compete over a series of skill-based activity stations, testing their hand eye coordination, focus, accuracy and balance.  Each station saw pupils earning points for their school, with the aim of being the winning school.
