Sessions are done on a weekly basis at this school (Wednesdays & Fridays) usually from start of school to mid-day. Multiple classes take part in these sessions and the kids have lots of fun.

At this location we also do some PTT during school hours session when the time permits.  This is usual on a Wednesday  afternoon.

Head Coach Remarks:

First let me say thanks to the UK Friends of the Mustique Charitable Trust – UKFMCT, for their continued support in making our major programmes possible. 

Thanks to the General Donors: you also contribute tremendously by donating to the mini programmes we have across SVG.

World Table Tennis Day was also celebrated during the month of April – Happy World Table Tennis Day!! to all.

Through my visits to all the locations, I am seeing improvements in both the structure of the sessions and the skills of the kids. I look forward to making improvements throughout the VTTF grassroots programmes and attracting more support to carry table tennis forward in SVG. These programmes do a lot for the kids, coaches, parents and community. This I have seen first hand and I say thanks to all involved.
