Table Tennis
At St. Raphaela’s there are several opportunities to get involved in Table Tennis. We run social table tennis in the mornings and at lunch times for ‘Bat and Chat’ which is open to all; both staff and students. We also hold a whole school competition from January to May every year open to all staff and students.
Table Tennis Ireland, along with our Local Sports Partnership, run a 'Leadership through Table tennis' course yearly for senior students along with an introduction to coaching course for staff and Students. We have also been involved in the HERMOVES project for the past to years, which is a Sport Ireland Initiative designed to inspire and support more teenage girls to be active.
Competitively we are in the Leinster Schools Table Tennis League and currently have four Minor Teams (comprised of first-year students) and one Junior Team (comprised of first-year students).
