We need Volunteers!

In partnership with Table Tennis Scotland, South Lanarkshire Leisure and EK Life, we are planning a new venture in East Kilbride Shopping Centre called Pop In and Play.

The plan is to kit out an existing unit in the shopping centre with Table Tennis tables and equipment and, under supervision, encourage people using the Centre to literally pop in & play Table Tennis whilst going about their normal business. We have the opportunity to have this facility open 7 days a week if we have enough volunteer support

It might look something like this….

 

If you are interested in supporting the venture by Volunteering, a full  description of the role can be found by following this link.

Alternatively, leave us a message on our web site, app or Facebook page and we will follow up with you.

There is no big commitment required – anything from a few hours a week would be great. The more volunteers we can get, the more hours the venue can be opened.

Go on, you know you want to!

• Against his second opponent Bruce played much better winning the first game (11-9).
• The second game his opponent levelled the match with Bruce competing well (8-11).
• The third end was very evenly matched until last few points where Bruce just missed out but he played well (8-11).
• His opponent had gained confidence from last two wins and quite comfortably won the match in fourth game (11-1).
• Bruce looked to get his first win in group against next opponent and he did. Winning the match 3-1.
• A good performance in the first game was followed by a disappointing one in second game (11-5), (5-11).
• However in the final two games Bruce played excellently and dominated games from start to finish with good all-round play (11-1), (11-6).
