Raring to go:GTTA team received training at the Naihati Youth Association in West Bengal for two weeks braving inclement weather to fine tune their skills under the tutelage of some of the senior coaches out there.

For the seven-member table tennis team from the Global Table Tennis Academy (GTTA) team, including two national ranking players A. Sreeja and S. Fidel R. Snehit, it was an experience which is bound to make them much better players.

For these paddlers trained at the Naihati Youth Association in West Bengal for two weeks braving inclement weather to fine tune their skills under the tutelage of some of the senior coaches out there.

Sreeja, who was in national coaching camp in Indoor, directly came to Naihati TT Club which is famous for producing about dozen internationals and more than 30 national players.

The GTTA chief coach Somnath Ghosh and Balasuri Shanker, Joint Secretary of the GTTA and S. Ramu, secretary of the GTTA, were there too to lend all moral support as the young talent made a sincere effort to improve their skills.

With the academy which took care of the entire expenditure and also the basic needs of the players, the latter had naturally enough time to stay focussed.

“Before the start of the State TT calendar, we thought we should have a camp in Bengal. Despite the fact that we had to spend lot of money for this, we came back with lot of satisfaction. It is a morale-booster for our kids,” Somnath Ghosh observed.

“Our players got an opportunity to play with the top ranking Bengal players for more than 20 sessions and gave their best to brush up their skills. Indeed it is a very good practice session for us,” the vice-president of the GTTA, Ramdoss Bharatan, said.

Sreeja (India No-5 in sub-junior girls) and Snehit (India No-4 in cadet boys) expressed their happiness over the vigorous training sessions. “The Naihati Association chief coach Mr.Mihir Ghosh and his assistants Mr. Uttam and Mr.Amarnath and our coach Somnath Bhayya helped us learn new tricks,” Sreeja remarked. “We should be much better players in the season ahead thanks to the very professional training programme we had undergone,” she pointed out.
