Our Performance Pathway has been designed to enable players of all ages and abilities to enjoy the sport. We are proud to be the biggest table tennis club in Barnsley, providing outstanding coaching and teaching opportunities to all of our players.
Barnsley Table Tennis Club aims to inspire everyone to carry a heart for table tennis. This is at the core of everything that we do. Our coaches have a passion and love for the sport, and we aim to pass this on to the younger generation of table tennis players. We understand the importance of recognition and rewarding success, we constantly remind our players that 'they are able'.
We regularly take part in competitions and league matches. Barnsley TTC has six teams playing in the junior league at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield. We look forward to entering more teams next season as we continue our growth. We also have three teams in the National Junior and Cadet League which is played in Huddersfield.
