Christopher Does It Again! 🏆

A huge well done to Christopher for winning the Cadet final against Ben Willis.

Earlier in the day, Christopher had already defeated Ben 3-2 in the group stage, but in the final he raised his level even higher, producing a dominant 3-0 victory. The standout moment came in the second game when Christopher found himself trailing 10-4. Many players would have given up, but he showed tremendous fighting spirit, composure, and belief to pull the game back and win it. He then went on to take the third game convincingly to secure the title.

This victory was about much more than technique. It was about resilience, courage, and refusing to accept defeat even when the odds looked against him. To come back from 10-4 down in a final demonstrates the mentality of a champion.

Well done, Christopher. Keep believing, keep working, and keep improving.

Nuff Respect. 👊🏓

A lot of players only focus on attacking, but if you really want to become a complete table tennis player, there are four things you absolutely must be good at. You must be able to serve properly, return properly, open up with confidence, and most importantly, you must be able to block under pressure. Blocking is not just about putting the bat there. Good blocking takes timing, touch, control, balance, bravery, and concentration. At some stage in a match, you will come under attack, and if you cannot block, you will struggle badly against strong attacking players.

This is why I was very impressed with Akira here. The blocking was controlled, sharp, calm, and intelligent. Instead of panicking under pressure, she stayed balanced and trusted the technique. That is the type of discipline and composure that can take a player a very long way in this sport. People always talk about big attacks, but good blocking can completely frustrate and break down aggressive opponents.

At Luton Table Tennis Club, we are building complete players, not one-dimensional players. Every part of the game matters, and Akira showed exactly why blocking is one of the must-have skills in modern table tennis.

The youngsters at the club are getting so good that I have to keep improving myself as well.

I'm back doing some work on the robot, sharpening my technique, improving my movement, and making sure I stay in shape so I can keep up with them in training. A coach should never stop learning, never stop developing, and never stop leading by example.

This is Level 3. The journey continues.
