Primary Inter-Schools Tournament
18 October, 2024
We were delighted with the response to the table tennis tournament organised with Jersey Sport on Friday and were very grateful to all the teaching and support staff who accompanied the teams and also helped with umpiring. It was full on for 3 hours and the 44 children from the 5 schools (22 teams) are to be warmly commended for their quiet attention to instructions, sportsmanship and always trying their best. I hope that everyone had fun and it may have even inspired some to come back and learn more about technique and the rules.
