The games played at the Examination Council of Lesotho (Ecol) Centre, Khubetsoana.<\/p>\n<p>Participants were Primary, High and Tertiary Schools such as Butha-Buthe High School, Likila High School, St Joseph\u2019s High School, Thamae Primary School, Itekeng Primary<\/p>\n<p>School, St Cyprian\u2019s High School and National University of Lesotho (NUL). As revealed by LETTA Public Relations Officer (PRO) Thato Mathibeli, the aim of<\/p>\n<p>the tournament was to arise the spirit of table tennis players, reconnect with the fans and above all, build oneness within table tennis players. She said Covid-19<\/p>\n<p>outbreak had hit various sporting codes, some of which did not manage to make a come-back in the game. It is in the same tournament where only one team from both Male and Female categories<\/p>\n<p>were to claim their 1st positions and they are Botha-Buthe High School on Ladies side and NUL on Men side. Meanwhile, on May 21,LETTA will have a meeting at Ecol headquarters, Maseru<\/p>\n<p>where two representatives from each team registered under the LETTA will show up for sharing of the challenges and successes the association faced during the<\/p>\n<p>year. LETTA season ends in April and repots are given annually. The association was established in 1997 by Chabeli Mohatlane who is also LETTA President.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/lesotho\">Lesotho<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Lesotho.
