Falmouth Docks Table Tennis Club

by Jerry Williams
(Falmouth, England)

Falmouth Docks Table Tennis Club is the oldest club in the South West and we believe one of the oldest in England.

It is also the biggest in the South West with 155 members.

We can only play in one league because of our westerly position and that is the West Cornwall League. But it is a good league, well run with four strong divisions.

Falmouth Docks currently has 11 teams. Our league matches are played out of Penwerris Church Hall in Falmouth but our club nights are held every Thursday at Penryn Sports College just outside of Falmouth.

We have 15 tables on club night and expect 3 more soon. It is not uncommon for 50 players to attend our club night ranging from a very strong county standard to beginners and learner adults.

The best thing about our club is that it attracts so many people of so many varying standards. It has a warm and friendly atmosphere with coaching, a robot, drills and exercises and social interaction.

Visitors are welcome and the cost of the clubnight which runs from 7.00 - 9.30 each Thursday is just £ 2.00 per player.
