After a decade-long break, Marc returned to the game in 2024 and joined Worthing Table Tennis Club, which played a key role in encouraging him on his path to becoming a coach complementing his passion for both playing and coaching table tennis.
Now a qualified umpire and active player in the local league, Marc is dedicated to growing both as a player and a coach.
