Updated | By East Coast Breakfast
We meet and chat to Noyolo Table Tennis Academy, and the team had a very heated match against some of their toughest students.
KZN's first Table Tennis Academy - Noyolo, is grooming South Africa's future Olympians in the sport.
The academy has been operational for 7 months now and has had a high success rate thus far, the Academies Player Development Plan has now seen 2 players from KZN making the National team for the World Junior Table Tennis Championships which will be held in Cape Town this December.
They have 9 clubs that are currently with the academy, 209 players, and 6 coaches.
The Breakfast team was very excited to meet Noyolo Tennis Academy founder Ms. Yanga Mahlamvu, the Academy's National Coach and the 2 National players representing KZN to talk about their road to this event which will see 20 Nations from all 7 Continents.
