Mr Shingleton sent this report:
A select group of Year 9 and 10 students gathered for a special table tennis masterclass with Ryan Jenkins, a six times Commonwealth Games Medallist, two times British Champion and Current Olympic Coach preparing his team for Paris 2024. They learned about grip, stance, and footwork basics, and then dove into the crucial skill of spinning the ball. Ryan taught students topspin, backspin, and sidespin, and why it matters in the game.
Students practiced these skills and watched in amazement as Ryan demonstrated his expertise with lightning-fast reflexes and precise shots. They were inspired to improve their own game and learned the importance of practice and perseverance. Overall, the lesson was an exciting and educational experience that left the students eager to keep playing and improving.
