**New Club Shirts**
The new club shirts, pale blue with discrete white and red flashes are now available to order. Please speak to a committee member at a session or via the contact page.
A number of members had expressed an interest in getting a Stowmarket club shirt.
We have therefore negotiated a potential deal with Bribar, our main equipment supplier.
It their Joola Blue Milan shirt for £14.50 each, plus £4.00 for printing our club name on the back. This is a £3.00 discount on their catalog price.
This used to be an expensive shirt, now offered at a significant reduction. We have just purchased some for the Suffolk senior county team and are very pleased with them.
Bury St Edmunds League
The new season starts on the 16th September.
The fixtures are now available to view on the brand new League website, here.
STT Club Championships - Consultation Proposal
It has been suggested to the committee that, as we did not run the club championships in the summer (other than the Junior event), a club event could be run at St,. Peter Hall at between Christmas and New Year.
It is suggested that there be a Handicap event (and perhaps a Handicap doubles) instead of numerous graded events.
The committee would welcome feedback on this idea, either by speaking to a committee member or by writing via the form on the Contacts page.
You can also take part in an informal poll below.
Situated in the centre of Suffolk, we are a friendly table tennis club with something to offer all those interested in table tennis, whatever your age or standard including:
- general practice or social playing for all
- a separate session for the over 50’s
- coaching for Junior or Adult age groups, or
- competition in one of three divisions in a local league.
We provide a number of different sessions each week at two venues – see our current programme below for further details.
