More than 80 kids from around the country are visiting the LOOPS Table Tennis centre in Sunshine West to take part in the 2022 National Hopes Week & Challenge this week.
The event, supported by the state government through the Significant Sporting Events Program, runs from April 11 to 15 and has broken participation records.
Table Tennis Australia chief executive Scott Houston was glad about the support received from the government.
“The Victorian Government has a long history of supporting table tennis and national events in Victoria and we are grateful for their generous and ongoing contribution once again in 2022,” Houston said.
“Pleasingly, we have attracted 81 entries for the 2022 National Hopes Week & Challenge and 164 entries for the TTA Tour – Melbourne; which sets new participation records for both events.
“This provides great confidence to all our supporters, including the Victorian Government.”
