Wisbech Table Tennis Club is seeing a spike in membership, says Steve Barrett.
This comes as the sport experiences an 11 per cent increase in adult participation in the UK between 2022 and 2024.
Led by Chris Gay and Peter Munch, the club has expanded its facilities with two more tables, allowing for more players.
Table tennis is gaining popularity due to its accessibility, low cost, and inclusive nature, along with its mental and physical benefits.

The upcoming 2026 World Table Tennis Championships in London are expected to further boost the sport's profile and participation rates.
The Wisbech club, which operates as a charitable community club, is open to members every day of the week, offering both competitive and social playing opportunities.
People interested in joining for competitive play, fitness, or socialising can contact Peter Munch at petermunch@btinternet.com for more information.
Additionally, hundreds of thousands of children and young people are playing table tennis weekly, contributing to the sport’s resurgence.
