Our second edition arrives Aug 15!
The BCTTA News
The original BCTTA News has evolved from a printed pamphlet to a modern e-newsletter
Discovering former national team member Eddy Lo’s boxes of old table tennis publications proved to be extremely fortunate for those of us at the BCTTA who’d been tasked with creating a new BCTTA e-Newsletter. Out of print for decades, each old yellowed edition is a testament to the hard work that went into every publication, inspiring us as editors of the new BCTTA e-Newsletter to meet that high standard of effort. On the level of editorial content, these old newsletters provide a road map for how to report on table tennis with focus, honesty, gusto, opinion, and creativity. In fact, we have devoted a series of posts to republishing these old newsletters in a feature section we call, “Looking Back”. Check them out here.
Fast forward to now, the spring of 2023, where we are putting the finishing touches on the “BCTTA News”, our first modern e-newsletter. BCTTA News will publish every month or two and will be a concise summary of everything we’ve been working on at the BCTTA website. The format of the e-newsletter will be much like the image on the left, with brief introductions to new and exciting content recently posted on the website with links so you can read the full content.
As I pick up one of these newsletters from the early 70's, feel it in my hands, and marvel at the number of pages brimming with content, it really brings home how much work goes into a newsletter on this magnitude and it shows just how much was going on in the BC table tennis scene in those days"
