St Albans

St Albans Table Tennis Club is one of the oldest established clubs in the country and play at Westminster Lodge, Holywell Hill, St Albans.

The club was formed at a first general meeting held in Cornwell’s room on 30th January 1923. Its first headquarters were at Alma Road Infants School, subs were 5 shillings (25 pence) and there were 44 members.

It has had various homes in the city before moving to the hut on Hollywell Hill in 1964. This was originally one of 15 huts built as Army camp accommodation.

The club’s membership has included many international and county players during these years.

The present club has a membership of about 45 players and runs 10 teams in the SHAW league.

At the end of the season we hold our annual tournament which is very popular and many prizes are won. There are also various social activities held during the year, including an Evening at the Dogs, Golf Day & end of season Indian meal.

The annual fees are £40 per season (£35 if paid by June), which includes all league registrations etc:
