All of the male players won their games on the morning of the third day of competition, while the females were a delight to watch after entering the medal zone in the team games.<\/p>\n

On the future of the game, he suggested that a few rising stars should be selected and taken to China for grooming and they will become the next super stars in Ghana Table Tennis.<\/p>\n

He commended the President of the GTTA, Mr. Mawuko Afadzinu, the sponsors of the event and other heads of federations in the West African region who are attending the Championship.<\/p>\n
