Swansea and District Table Tennis League:

If you wish to play in the Swansea and District Table Tennis League and/or the Table Tennis Association of Wales’ Team Championship of Wales, then please speak to the Chairman, Secretary or any Club Committee Member.

They will explain the details/differences of the two Leagues and help consider whether or not there is, at that time, space for you in a team.

The Swansea League usually plays from October to April and involves both home and away play for Divisions 1. The Premier Division players currently play all their League matches in one centre (Morriston Leisure Centre) in Swansea. This entails them having to travel to Swansea each week.

Whilst it is not impossible for a new player to walk into a team mid season, it is usually the case that they have to wait until the new season to join a team.

Occasionally, we will have too many players to place in the available teams. Where this occurs, we try to work with other Clubs in the League to ‘loan’ our players to them to ensure that, between us all, we can get as many people playing as possible.

As indicated above, if you want to play in the Swansea League you will have to become a member of the Table Tennis Association of Wales (TTAW/TTW). This is our National Governing Body (NGB). To play in any League in Wales, you must hold a ‘personal’ membership with this organisation.

Added to this are your League Team and Personal Fees, and sharing in the transport and its cost to get to away matches.

============================================================

The Team Championship of Wales is operated by the TTAW/TTW on an annual basis. It usually involves 2 full weekends playing in the National Sports Centre in Cardiff. This can change and some Leagues (particularly the Veterans) may play more single days on more weekends, especially if the venue is in North Wales.
