The Spike or Victoria College Review 1938

Table Tennis

Table Tennis

The V.U.C. Table Tennis Club was formed only this year, but is already flourishing. Owing to the fact that it would take several months to become properly established, and the strength of the members was somewhat uncertain, it was decided not to enter any teams in the Wellington inter-club matches. However, judging by the standard of play, the club will probably be able to enter several teams next year.

The club has bought two new tables, four nets and four bats, and these have been in constant use throughout the year. Club evenings have been held on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and on these occasions a member of the Committee has arranged the games.

The club opened its activities with a handicap tournament, at which the high standard of play was very encouraging. Two ladders, one for women and one for men, have been set up, and although time has permitted of very few challenges as yet, there will probably be many in the third term. Great interest is being shown in the club championships, for which many entries have been received.

Play will be carried on throughout the summer, when members can arrange their own games.
