2018 ATTA Training & Round Robin Competition

​

The ATTA Training & Round Robin Competition for 2018 took place at the Aldershot Garrison Sports Centre (AGSC) on 10 to 12 Oct 18. This continued the annual Event for the fourth year running with plenty of entries with a total of approximately 35 players taking part. Players had a fantastic training package to start with by our special guest coach Alison, which was followed by the Round Robin Competition organised by WO2 John McFaul, our ATTA Coach. However this year saw a slight change to the set up of this Event; ATTA is always striving to improve things overall so it was decided to introduce a new feature which is Doubles. The standard of play was high and there were plenty of worthy 'trophy' winners. This Event is a great way to start the new season encouraging new players to the sport along with being great preparation for the upcoming Army Training & Championships in February 2019 and the Inter-Services in 2019 as well. There were several previously unseen players plus a healthy representation from the Army Reserve and our top players. The eventual trophy winners were:

​

- Round Robin Competition Main Event (Open) Singles Finalists: Bibek beat Pete

​

- Round Robin Competition Main Event (Open) Singles Bronze Medalist: David

​

- Ladies' (Rankings) Singles: Hilary beat Ellie

​

- Round Robin Competition Secondary Event (Open) Doubles: Gurung 232 & Rana beat Limbu 595 & Tamang 086

​

* Most Improved: Kiran
