Stockport Table Tennis Academy is proud to announce the hosting of the GEWO sponsored charity WE LOVE MCR tournament in aid of the Manchester Arena terrorist bomb victims.

Message from the Wilmslow league secretary Andy Johnson.

The winter table tennis league has finished and for those amongst us who hang their bats up for the summer and for those who continue to play in the summer leagues I have an important message for everyone.

It gives me great pleasure to announce that we will once again be holding a pre-season tournament and fund raiser on Sunday 17th September 2017, assisted by our official sponsors GEWO.  Full details are given below but I wanted to make everyone aware that this is going to be a unique event. Not only will everyone have the opportunity to compete for trophies and prizes but we will also be raising money for We Love Manchester Charity. Your entry includes a #lovewins Bee T-Shirt.

The suicide bombing on the 22nd May 2017 at the Manchester Arena shocked all of us and our table tennis community.  Our tournament on the 17th September is our way of helping to raise funds for the victims and those affected by this terrorist attack. Please come and support us as we raise money for the We Love Manchester Charity and wear your T Shirts with pride on the day.
