Mick Harper, organiser of all the County Junior and Cadet teams in Cambridgeshire, paid tribute to Archway Chairman Julian Tee for Archway's contribution to Cambridgeshire table tennis:
"All the young players played with great skill and motivation. All of them were well-behaved, courteous, focused and played with a smile. They all listened to instructions and by the end, were able to discuss tactics and understand areas in match play that they could change in order to improve performance and end result. The trust was born!
At the end of the day, it is down to your management of Archway TTC and the time, skill and dedication of your coaches that makes weekends like this possible. Long may it continue and we wish all your players continued success. The future is bright!"
