Three Warrington Table Tennis Club juniors recently made debut's in the first division of the Warrington & District League: Alex Poyner, Connor Whitehead and Jonny Pine each train at Warrington Table Tennis Club and will now play for Culcheth in the first division for the 2014-15 season.
They join teammates, Jordan Glendenning, David Eden and Daniel Clarke, who have each also made the same transition over the last few years.
Club Chairman, Kevin Eden, said: "One of the founding aims of Warrington Table Tennis Club is to bring juniors through and into the league to help to provide long-term sustainability to table tennis in Warrington."
"When we founded the club eight years ago our aim was to reverse the decline in the numbers playing league table tennis since the 1980's by focusing on developing junior players and supporting them in the local league."
For the 2014-15 season Warrington Table Tennis Club will support around 20 juniors in the WDL alone, in both it's WDL teams and other district teams across Warrington. Their next match is away at Sutton on 15 October.
