Halton Table Tennis Club was only founded in 1999 when the new table tennis facility was opened at the Halton Stadium, Lowerhouse Lane, Widnes.
Sport England Lottery grant provided £2.31 million pounds towards the new West Stand, which was for community use and for the Halton Regional Table Tennis Centre. Halton was identified as a location for a regional centre in the Focus Sport plan of 1992. Halton Table Tennis League formed a partnership with Halton Borough Council to develop the project and form Halton Table Tennis Forum.
A development plan was produced for table tennis in the Borough from playground to podium; the plan included schools development from primary through to college; sponsorship of National competitions and attracting top players through the promotion of International England matches, National events and entering competitions.
Already our young players are starting to climb the England ranking lists. Halton Table Tennis Ltd was formed in 2000 which includes Halton TT Club, Halton Summer League and M& N Halton TT League.
It is registered as an ETTA Premier Excellence Club; Premier Ability Club and was ETTA and CCPR Club of the Year 2000.
