Table Tennis England membership fees for 2015/16 have been approved at the AGM.
As recommended by the Board, Player Membership will cost £10 for Seniors and £5 for Cadets or Juniors. This represents no increase on the 2014/15 season.
Player Members are eligible to play competitive table tennis, for example in local leagues.
Associate Membership, which previously cost £4, will be free. Associate members are not eligible to play competitive table tennis.
Removing the Associate Membership fee is intended to remove a possible barrier to membership, helping clubs and the sport to grow.
More information about how to join Table Tennis England, and the benefits of the various Mambership packages, will be released in the next few days.
The AGM also approved the Annual Report and the Financial Statements.
