STIGA JUNIOR CHALLENGER SERIES 2011-2012
Sunday 9th October will see the 1st Event of the STIGA Junior Challenger Series 2011/12 take place in Colaiste Phadraig, Lucan, Co. Dublin.
The Series, is a key ITTA initiative in the development of the sport at Junior level. The primary objective of the Series is to increase participation levels throughout the country, by facilitating developing players who want to participate in table tennis competitions. The emphasis will be on having fun and enjoying lots of games. All players get an average of 9 matches and have lots of fun!
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 but we ask in order to help give us a head start with the draw players pre-register. Play starts at 10am. To pre-register please email clubdonic@gmail.com on/before 7th October to register!
We extend a special invitation to as many parents as possible attending in support of their children.
