“Our last outing at the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) African Club Championship in Tunisia was a testament to our dedication and prowess. Such achievements do not materialize by happenstance; they are products of meticulous planning and rigorous training.
"As we approach the Niger Delta Games, we must reinforce our identity as champions and exhibit the hallmark of excellence that defines us,” he asserted.
He thanked Governor Bassey Otu once again for his unwavering support for sports and table tennis specifically.
With the latest procurement of high-performance gear and accessories, Canaan Table Tennis is ready for yet another remarkable outing. Expectations are high as the team gears up to showcase its dexterity, resilience, and championship pedigree on the grand stage of the Niger Delta Games.
