Challenger 3 - STIGA Challenger Goes West
20 March 2010
Sunday 21st March sees the STIGA Junior Challenger Series move out of Leinster for the first time and go West to Connacht. With a large attendance of players expected in Foxford Sport and Leisure Centre, Mayo, a fun day of table tennis should be enjoyed by all.
The tournament will be based on an open draw, and all players will participate in the same competition - there will be no age groups and boys and girls will play against each other
Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th in each division, and will consist of table tennis equipment, which will be supplied by the Series sponsor, STIGA.
As the emphasis will be on fun and participation, the ITTA has decided to restrict eligibility on the following basis - All male players who are ranked in the top 15 at Junior level in Ireland or the top 8 at Cadet level are excluded from entering tournaments. Likewise, all female players who are ranked in the top 8 at Junior level or the top 5 at Cadet level are excluded from entering the tournaments. All Seniors (over 17) are also excluded.
An entry fee of €5 for ITTA affiliated players and €7 for non affiliated players will apply. Players can pay and play on the day so there is no need to pre-register.
We extend a special invitation to all those players who are involved under the Schools WIS programme, and would like to see as many parents attending in support of their children.
Light refreshments will be served at the venue – why not come along for an affordable, energetic, fun-filled day of table tennis! Registration begins at 9am with play starting at 10am.
