Table Tennis

We are a relaxed and sociable society that is available for everyone to join, from complete beginners to those that have been playing their whole life. So come along to one of our sessions to try it for yourself!

Hi there! In our society, Table Tennis is at the heart of making new friends, getting some exercise and most of all having a great time. We also have a ‘Coaches Corner’ for those who are learning from scratch or want to improve their game. Our sessions are packed with all abilities, so come along to a Give It A Go session and become a member to experience it all for yourself!

Practice takes place at Cromer Terrace. *Location: as you exit the union from the main entrance, turn left and then take the first left again. Cromer terrace is then on the left-hand side of this road.

We have two excellent Men’s teams and one fabulous Women’s team who compete against other universities in the BUCS (British Universities and Colleges Sport) league.
