Cherrybrook Table Tennis Club has been providing community service by organising table tennis since 1999. We began as part of the CCCA in 1999 and operated out of the Cherrybrook Technology High School, see our original website: http://members. Optusnet. Com.
We moved to the Cherrybrook Community Centre in 2009 and soon after entered a team in the local district competition. The club grew in popularity and gained a 50% government grant to purchase desperately needed 8 extra tt tables. However, we had a falling out with CCCA, and we were also almost forced out of the community centre. The CCCA took our $4,360 grant, but we have 'naming rights' and include these 3 tables in our current assets of 14 tables!.
Despite the setback, club members and numerous visiting table tennis clubs enjoy bing bong at Cherrybrook. Only a few years after joining SNDTTA we were a major force, have won many division competitions and have never had a team quit mid-season due to the integrity of our high quality administration. The great support from the coaches and volunteer staff have resulted in many success stories of social and physical health improvements, training of beginners and juniors and reaching out to all strata of the community, including those who were unfortunately born with or accidentally acquired disabilities.
