History

Ferndale Table Tennis club was first established as a TTk Greenhouse academy in 2007. The academy was overseen by Welsh International player Stephen Gertsen he was at the academy for 3 and a half years and had great success during his time here. Then ex-Scottish Junior International player Scott Johnston who was assistant coach at old TTk school Tonypandy and had previously helped Stephen with his coaching duties at Ferndale took over. Scott was in the position for a year. Scott moved on but the club has again managed to get a new coach who is going to continue to allow the club to grow. Gwyn Carvill from Bridgend TT club has now taken over at the school and will hopefully use his knowledge of the game and links within welsh table tennis to help the club go from strength to strength.

Super Series Weekend Three

Ferndale had several players representing the school at the third weekend of this competition. This has a very high standard entering in both the Under 14 and Under 19 events with there being no easy matches.
The top four positions for both age groups were as follows:

Under 14's
1st - Callum Evans (Tonyrefail), 2nd - Jac Jenkins (Tonyrefail), 3rd - Stefan Jeczalik (Tonypandy), 4th - Caitlin Williams (Nantymoel)

Under 19's
1st - Charlotte Carey (Ebbw Vale), 2nd - Connor Edwards (Tonypandy), 3rd - Ethan Davies (Tonypandy), 4th - Chris Griffiths (Ferndale)

A great result for Dylan Lewis in the Under 14 consolation event as he played very well to win the event. He will be disappointed not to qualify for the main event but to go out and show that he was good enough to win the consolation event.

Well Done to all the Ferndale players.
