Hope everyone had a great
Christmas and best wishes for 2012.
Congratulations to Steve Ng (K.G. 'A') for a superb performance in the
Xmas Shootout at Essex road on 29th December. Steve played some
fantastic table tennis, remaining unbeaten for the whole evening,
eventually defeating Prasanth Devarajappa (Bas. Hindu Soc) 21-20 in an
incredibly closely contested final. Many thanks to Bill Bavister and his
team of helpers for providing a very enjoyable evening, with a great
turnout of 24 players, all looking to work off some of those Christmas
mince pies!
Tom Speed has made the draw for the 2nd round of the Team Handicap,

View from the Web
November 5th, 2011
This season is already
hotting up and there are many good things to note from the matches
played so far. Firstly it's great to see some new names performing well,
plus the welcome rteturn of a few names returning to BDTTL after a
break. Also, thanks to everyone for making the effort to add comments to
the scorecards as well as sending out match details so promptly. It
really does help the webmaster keep everything as up to date as
possible. In Div 1 it looks like St Peters A are still the team to beat
but there are plenty of players out there who I think can put up a
strong challenge. In Div 2 Minitec B have made a fast start, but
it looks like an experienced AWE 'A' are likely to provide stern
opposition. In the newly formed Div 3, Aldworth and Basingstoke Hindu
Society are the front runners, although I'm hearing great reports of
some of the newcomers to BDTTL, particularly the juniors.
The Averages will be on-line after the completion of Week 8, so if you
could all make an extra special effort this week to send me through
results, it would be very much appreciated.

Handicap Singles Competition
October 30th, 2011
Message from Patrick Garlick:
We will be holding a handicap singles competition at Essex Road
(both rooms) on
Wednesday 16th November starting at 7:30pm open to all
league members and others if I am notified prior to
the night. There is no need to enter beforehand. Players can
just turn up on the night but
must be present by 7:15pm.
After this time all players will be put into groups and it might
not be possible to squeeze in any late entries. The entry fee
(paid on the night) will be £3 and refreshments will be
provided. Essex Road will be open from 7pm for knocking
up. These competitions have been very well attended over the
past few years so expect plenty of games against many different
players, most of whom will be from different divisions.
- All players will be
divided into 4 groups at the start of the night and each
group will be played on 1 table (2 tables in each room).
- Every player will
receive a number of "base points" based on how they compare
to everybody in their group. Obviously if you are in a group
with lots of players better than you then you will receive a
lot more base points.
- Everybody in that
group will play each other 1 game up to 21 from "love-all"
and all points gained throughout all your matches in the
group will be added to your base points to give you a total
score. There are no deuces so a match at 20-20 will finish
21-20.
- The top 2 players from
each group will go through to the Quarter finals where a
random draw and a similar format will progress to the final.
In the event of a tie for group positions, all tied players
will progress to the knockout round and preliminary matches
will be played.
- Trophies will be
awarded to the winner and runner up
Although it is not
necessary to enter beforehand it would be a great help if you
could let me know if you intend to enter just so that I can
prepare for a general number of entries

Scorecard challenge!
October 19th, 2011
Here's a challenge for
you all! Please try and make at least ONE comment on every match
scorecard; facts, details, humour, interest, ridiculous....absolutely
anything goes! It will help to make the job of Press Officer Brenda
Bavister just a little bit easier if she has got something to write
about other than just scores.
Also, it would be really
helpful if a bit more care could be taken when completing the
scorecards. In particular; clear writing of player names and making sure
doubles players names are included.
VERY MANY THANKS!

RAF Odiham withdrawn from
the 1st Division
October 10th, 2011
Message from Registration Secretary, Ron Powell:
Please note that RAF Odiham has had to withdraw their team
in the 1st division this season. It is a sad loss to the
league, as they were a very good sporting side. It was
unfortunate but unavoidable with the situation at the Base
at present.
Please make a note of the fixture list as the fixture will
now become a bye.
One or two of their remaining players are still interested
in playing in the 1st Division
with another team, and in particular Simon Clark, and Andrew
Pipe.
If any team is interested please contact them or let me
know.
