    Table Tennis

    Formby Village Table Tennis was formed in the 1950’s by John Bagot who at the time was a Tennis member. Initially the club played in the Bowls Pavilion and from that early time it gradually grew in both members and competition success.Over the years the club has enjoyed considerable success in the League and have won the First division quite a few times.


    The club has had a number of quality players over the years including an English international and one of current members is vice chairman of Table Tennis England.


    The club also has a thriving social section which meets in the morning during the week so if you are a beginner this would be ideal for you. Competition players are very welcome to join of course.
