Ottery St Mary table tennis club is a thriving local club who currently have three teams in the Exeter and District Table Tennis league.

The club’s A team are currently sitting second on Division One.

Jeremy Broad, a member at the club says: “I am trying to generate more interest for what is a very enjoyable sport, practiced by too few in my opinion.

“Our club meet on Tuesday evenings from 7.30pm, for two hours, at the Kings school Ottery St Mary, and is open to young and old alike, league or non-league players.”

He continued: “Recently we were ale to secure some really useful – and gratefully received – sponsorship from local business Otter Nurseries who have kindly provided funding for us to purchase shirts worn by our league teams.”

Taster sessions are free and the club would love to see new members.
