NTTF To Organise A Month Training Camp, Says Nosiry Bello

As part of efforts to elevate the status of Nigeria's female table tennis players, the Nigeria Table Tennis Federation, NTTF, is expected to have a month training camp for selected young and talented ping pongers after the extinction of Coronavirus.

Its chief coach, Nosiru Bello, said the outbreak of the Covid- 19, had deprived the federation from organising a thorough training session for the female players who were expected to take over from Funke Oshonaike, Offiong Edem, Cecilia Akpan Otu among others.

Bello, said it was imperative for the federation to commence the programme in order to curtail the dominance of Egyptian female ping pongers in Africa's table tennis championship.

The coach, noted that it would be sad if NTTF could not produce quality and competent players who could challenge Egyptian female ping pongers, adding that Fatimo Bello, Aminat Ayinla, Tosin Oribamise, Ajoke Ojomi, among others, had the zeal to attain greater heights once they were exposed to such training.
