The triangular (Central, North Western, Sabaragamuwa Provinces) Table Tennis Team Championship, organised by the newly-formed Nittawela TT Club, was held at the Jagath Rajapakse Indoor Stadium in Doluwa.

Eighty-eight teams took part in what turned out to be a well-planned and very competitive tournament.

As expected, Vidyartha ‘A’, spearheaded by Udaya Ranasinghe, took the plum award while Mahamaya ‘A’ did likewise in the women’s section. Probodhana Rodrigo, the Antonian with a big future, seems to have slipped a bit in his standard and went down quite tamely to his opponents.
