Every Saturday between 13:00 and 16:00, we have our "Recreational Session" where players of all abilities are welcome.
This session is for doing anything you like which could range from having a knock-around to having a self-training session. All sessions are held in The Cube where we can get up to 8 tables out. The Cube is on Floor 2 of the Students' Union. There will often be a coaching officer present at these sessions. The coaching officer helps coach recreational players to help improve certain table tennis skills and techniques. It begins with a proper warm-up followed by drills and occasionally multiball. The above sessions are open to all levels of experience and we are always looking for new members!
We also have two Men's teams and two Women's teams in the BUCS league which is an inter-university league. Matches for this league are always played on a Wednesday afternoon. For the team, we run a weekly "Training Session" coached by one of the best Level 3 coaches in Hampshire. Annually, we have a weekend away to the University of Nottingham to compete in the BUCS Nationals Individual Championships. Team training is invite-only and will typically be on Sundays between 12:00 and 15:00 in The Cube, though times may change due to our coach's availability.
This year, we also have an additional session every Tuesday from 16:00-18:30, also in the Cube.
Socials are on a regular basis so be sure to like our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/suttctabletennis/) to find out more! Finally, we want to stress that you do NOT need Sport & Wellbeing membership to be part of SUTTC, saving money compared to almost every other sport. The membership prices for our club are stated below in the Membership Fee Information section. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact us. Contact via the Facebook page is preferable over our society email, as you will receive a faster response.
