English International Open Table Tennis Championships 2011

The English International Open Table Tennis Championships 2011 will be taking place 26-30 January 2011.

The world's most exciting players will soon be stepping out in Sheffield and fans will be in for a pleasant surprise.

"We gave a great deal of thought to the pricing and felt that it would be a great opportunity for many youngsters and their families to see the very best players in action.  One of the best ways to attract youngsters into the game is to show them how exciting it can be at the very top," said Event Director Mike Holt.  

He added: "There's no better opportunity to see the best players than at the English Open which last year was voted the best Pro Tour event in the world." said Holt who received the award from the International Table Tennis Federation in Moscow.

"We are committed to providing the best possible action at a competitive price and in this acute economic climate that's what we are setting out to do," he added.

Esther Nicholls, Events Consultant for UK Sport, said: “UK Sport is committed to bringing world class sporting events to the UK ahead of 2012, in what we believe is the most comprehensive pre-Games events programme ever staged by an Olympic and Paralympic host nation."The English Open Championships at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield will provide an invaluable opportunity for British athletes to experience international competition on home soil in preparation for their home Olympics, as well as a chance to hone the skills of volunteers and officials.”
