A hive of activity has been the order of proceedings in the main arena at the Erke German Open in Beijing on the first two days of play and also behind the scenes life has been busy.
A seminar for European coaches was held on Wednesday 19th and Thursday 20th November 2008; the theme has been very much one of promoting unity.
Two main goals have been the items on the agenda.

The new look Table Tennis Illustrated |
11/17/2008
Table Tennis Illustrated No.73 Autumn 2008, will be available shortly.
The magazine has undergone several changes being presented in an eye catching and innovative manner; with a new design team and printer in place.
Change in whatever walk of life means new challenges and new hurdles which have to be crossed; it is the same with the production of a magazine. In producing the current issue, there have been unforeseen problems and thus publication has been delayed.
