Four for table tennis course
Four of Canterbury’s most promising young table tennis players will take part in national coaching schools in the North Island next month.
The players are Simeon Cairns, who is about to begin his first full year of A grade play in Canterbury, Mark Clasper, John Richards, and Marie Havler.
A total of 12 boys will follow the course, from May 11 to 14, at Palmerston North while 12 girls will I attend a course in Welling-! ton from May 18 to 20. Cairns came from Otago last year. During the coming winter competition, the three boys will form a particularly youthful Avonside II team.
Both Richards and Cairns were listed in the 1978 national junior rankings at ninth and tenth respectively. Clasper was the top-ranked Canterbury junior, ahead of Richards. Havler was ranked tenth last year in the Canterbury women’s listing and was the top-ranked junior.
