Westfield is a progressive table tennis club, awarded Clubmark and ETTA Premier Club Advanced status, based in a purpose-built hall at Weavers Leisure Centre, Wellingborough (for directions, please navigate to 'our location' page)

Westfield TTC HallThe club currently has a membership in excess of one hundred, across all ages and abilities, and offers table tennis sessions on four evenings per week for a "casual user" through to a "Premier British League" player.

Junior coaching sessions for all abilities, Beginners, Intermediates, Advanced & Excellence run weekly during term time. The club has strong links with both Northamptonshire County and Northamptonshire Schools Association and supports developing players to progress within both organisations. The club run a 'Get back into sport' session, in partnership with Northamptonshire Sport, which encourages previous players and new adult participation in playing table tennis on a weekly basis. As an ETTA Premier Club we are part of the "Ability" programme and also run sessions of activities for participants with disabilities led by Denise Barnett, a previous international wheelchair athlete.

For competitive play; the club currently have teams in the local Wellingborough & Kettering Leagues, run our own Junior League (kindly sponsored by Thornton's), have teams in the National Cadet League and National Junior Leagues, one team in the Junior British League and three Senior British League teams (Premier, Divisions 2 & 4) . We also run our own Summer League.

During the summer break, Westfield has in place a well regarded table tennis training camp, held over several days, led by Greg and Tim Yarnall with coaching also from such names as Desmond Douglas and John Hilton.

As with most clubs, the above is only possible because of the efforts and commitment of our coaches and volunteers. We currently enjoy the commitment of 12 qualified coaches, but we are always happy to recruit more support for our coaching sessions. Every effort, both financial and practical is made to assist members in gaining sporting qualification at all levels, from junior umpire awards to coaching status. We also have a healthy team of volunteers who help us run events and competitions and welcome anyone who would like join our ranks.

My thanks go to all our coaches, committee members and volunteers for giving up their free time over the past twelve months, it is appreciated, and long may it continue.

Kevin Bird
Chairman
