Five local youngsters set off early on Saturday morning to Norwich for a 9am start to the
Norfolk Junior Table Tennis Tournament.

The youngest was 9 year old Mollie Patterson and after a long day Mollie came home with a load of trophies. Mollie entered the Girls Under 11, 13 & 15 singles and what a day she had. She was winner of both the Under 11 and Under 13's and was runner up in the Under 15's.

Next up in the age scale was 13 year old Ross Brown and he was Runner-Up in the Boys under 13's

Elder brother 14 year old Karl also had success being Runner-Up in the Under 15's and Under 18's

Both Karl and Ross play in the KLTTA for Runcton Holme 'B' and both had an excellent season.

Finally we have Daniel Bullen from Dersingham and Ryan Hubbard from Watlington who both played well in the Under 15's and 18's Boys singles.

 

WELL DONE TO YOU ALL!

Membership

( 1st September – 30th August)

Senior £15.00 ... Junior £7.50 ... Family £25.00

IMPORTANT!  ALL TEAM SECRETARIES HAVE RECEIVED THE PROPOSED RULE CHANGES/SUGGESTIONS AND THEY ARE ALSO ON THIS WEBSITE.  I WOULD BE SURPRISED IF MANY IF ANY  PLAYERS HAVE ACTUALLY READ THEM, IF YOU HAVE NOT I SUGGEST YOU DO HAVE A READ. MOST OF THE SUGGESTIONS ARE STRAIGHT FORWARD BUT TWO OF THEM I CERTAINLY  DO NOT AGREE WITH AND I WILL LIST THEM BELOW

* Proposed: R Drew    Seconded: Exec. Comm.
Rule 3
Add " An Individual Affiliation is paid direct to the ETTA for each class of membership. (i.e. Adult Player, Junior Player and Associate Member). Each member to provide the Association's General Secretary with his/her ETTA membership Number".

I do not agree with this, I feel it would be much easier for the KLTTA to collect this individual ETTA membership (it was £6 this season for adults) when the player pays his KLTTA membership the KLTTA can then pay all registered players ETTA membership in one go. I know many players did not find it easy doing this themselves this season, especially if they did not use the internet.

** Proposed: G Rogerson   Seconded
Rule 10a
Delete " 1vA, 2vB, 3vC, 2vA, 1vC, 3vB, 2vC, 3vA, 1vB. Any pairing from each side to play a doubles" and replace with
"1&3 v A&C, 2&3 v B&C, 1vA, 3vB, 2vC, 1vB, 2vA, 3vC, 1&2 v A&B

I certainly do not agree with this, if you were at last seasons AGM I think you will find because of the early finishing time at Lynnsport it was proposed to alter the league format to the same as the Challenge Cup format which has three doubles and six singles therefore only 9 games. I personally do not like playing doubles and if this proposal  goes through I for one will not be playing next season. I like to just play three singles, if this format comes in I would have to play two singles and two doubles.

IT IS IMPORTANT YOU READ THESE PROPOSALS/SUGGESTIONS ETC AS ONCE THEY ARE PUT THROUGH IT IS TOO LATE IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THEM. PLUS CAN I SUGGEST THAT AT LEAST ONE PERSON FROM EVERY TEAM ATTENDS THE AGM, I WOULD SUGGEST MORE THAN ONE PERSON PER TEAM AS YOU ALL GET A VOTE.

Mollie Patterson Qualifies For National Championships

Mollie entered the 11 to 14 year old Eastern Region qualification event for the National Championships on Saturday at Wensum Table Tennis Centre in Norwich. She entered into the under 11's and under 12's girl's event's and finished third in both, which means she will now represent the Eastern region at the National Championships in both age groups on June 10th at the University of Wolverhampton in Walsall.

Well Done Mollie!

Below are proposed rule changes for next season, please check carefully and if you find any errors
or have any comments etc please fill in the contact form on this website and I will forward on to the committee.
