Paddlers Bounced To The Top At Local Tournament

25th Char Yong (Dabu) National Youth Top 10 Table Tennis Tournament


After achieving the highest ranking points through Singapore Table Tennis Association’s local tournaments throughout the year, our youth paddlers advanced to the 25th Char Yong (Dabu) National Youth Top 10 Table Tennis Tournament, where they made a dominant appearance in the competition held from 8 to 10 December 2022.

This is evident in the strong finish by our boys in the Under 15 Singles, as the Sports School team swept the top 4 positions in the event. In the finals match held on the last day of the tournament, Ellsworth Le caught up from behind to defeat schoolmate Nicholas Tan to clinch the gold medal with score of 4-11, 8-11, 11-5, 11-8, 11-8, while Zhou Jinghe and Yang Ze Yi took the third and fourth place respectively.

Our boys in the Under 19 category also proved to be a strong opponent in the Singles event. Luke Wang Yu Zheng put up a tough fight in the finals to secure a silver, while Koh Junhao did us proud with a bronze.

Meanwhile, Chloe Lai Neng Huen did just as well. She scored a gold medal in the Under 15 Girls’ Singles event with a convincing score of 11-5, 7-11, 11-6, 11-5.

All in all, our paddlers clinched 6 medals – 2 gold, 2 silver and 2 bronze at the tournament.
