Intermediate Boys Table Tennis team 2017

The intermediate boy’s table tennis team once again competed at the State Table Tennis Finals at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre (MSAC) in November 2017. The team consisted of John Chen, Phillip Lam, Kevin Mai, Leon Ng, Johnny Ngugen and Mustafa Cuttlerywala. This team has won the crown of Western Zone Metropolitan Champions for the past three years and have then gone on to compete at the state finals at MSAC. This is a special achievement and an indication of the high level of talent this group possess. In making the state finals each year, they are one of eight finalists from a starting pool of more than 400 teams throughout the state.

At the state finals in their pool the boys competed against Girton College Bendigo, University High and Warnambool Secondary College. These teams all had state squad players and there were also national ranked players in the intermediate completion. The boys did not make it out of their pool, but thanks to their depth of talent were very competitive.

Next year the boys will compete at the senior school level and we wish them all the best.
