Honourable Gbolahan Okuneye and Friends in the Table Tennis Section of Ikoyi Club is organizing a one-day Lagos State Junior Boys and Girls Table Tennis Tournament.

The championship, holding on Saturday at the Table Tennis Section of Ikoyi Club, will feature 16 cadets players comprise of eight boys and eight girls players will be competing only in boys and girls singles.

The tournament is sponsored by Honourable Gbolahan Okuneye and friends in the table tennis section of the Ikoyi Club.

According to Honorable Okuneye, “the reason for the sponsorship is to expose the cadets table tennis players to competition because they need to play more competition such as this to enable them gain more exposure in the game. Also we believe that government alone can’t continue to singlehandedly sponsor Sports. I think what we are doing is to complement government’s efforts in our own little way.

“This is just an experimental event, our intention is to make it an annual tournament. “
