BC Elementary Schools Table Tennis Championship 2023
The BC Elementary Schools Table Tennis Championships is back in modified form after a hiatus of several years, first due to COVID, and then the passing of Chandra Madhosingh, the tournament’s originator, host and organizer in December of 2022. This year’s tournament will be organized by the BCTTA in an effort to take the load off of teachers and schools whose table tennis programs have lost substantial momentum since 2018 when the last event was held.
2023 Pan-Asia Pacific Team Challenge
Bridgeport Sports Centre and the BCTTA is proud to announce the Pan-Asia Pacific Team Challenge Tournament at Bridgeport Sports Centre 11660 Bridgeport Road, Richmond, BC, on Sunday November 5. Team tournaments are a pleasant departure from regular single elimination knock-out tournaments because all players get to experience a lot more playing time. Don’t miss out. The deadline for entering your team is Wednesday, November 1 at 3pm.
