Diss & District Table Tennis League

The Diss & District table tennis league has been in existence from about 1948. It started out as the Diss and District Table Tennis League but from 1953 became the Worlingworth and District Table Tennis League. This eventually changed in 1977 when the league became The Diss and District Table Tennis League once again.

We are a friendly league welcoming new members and providing them, when needed, with coaching. This ensures that they have the basic skills to develop their table tennis game.  We are making every effort to encourage new teams and players, both young and old, by attending local events with our table tennis robot. This enables those with an interest to have a go and to perhaps re-kindle a talent from years gone by. It also generates a degree of publicity for the league.

Currently the league has a practise night at Diss High School on Tuesdays from 6pm to 9 pm. From 6 to 7pm basic coaching is available to junior players. From 7 to 9 pm there are up to 8 tables available to practice on for seniors.

Everyone is welcome but every person who takes part has to be registered with Table Tennis England.

All league players should be fully paid Table Tennis England members.

Those people who want to come and practise, juniors and seniors, but do not play in a league must first register with Table Tennis England, registration, if you are not a league player, is free and you can register through this link:

Table Tennis practise commences at 6:00pm until 7:00pm for juniors and from 7:00 until 9:00pm for seniors.

There will be a small charge to cover the cost of hall hire. Juniors £2. Seniors £4.

The reason for the registration is that Table Tennis England then covers the cost of up to £10m public liability insurance to cover you when playing in a club setting or socially in England. This cover is required by the High School and without it we would not be allowed to hire the hall.

The league has a table tennis robot which can be hired out for a nominal fee.

To contact the league either get in touch with one of the committee members listed below, or go to the How to join the league section of this website where an application form can be submitted online.

The Diss & District Table Tennis League is affiliated to and plays under the rules of the English Table Tennis Association.
