In February 2024 our very own Priyanka Pareek will be receiving an award from the Ottawa Sports Awards for the top local table tennis player from Ottawa for 2023. Priyanka is ranked 8th female table tennis player in Canada according to Table Tennis Canada (TTCAN). Last year she obtained her certification from Dejan Papic, as well as ITTF High Performance Coach Massimo Costantini and initiated our amazing kids’ High Performance Program. She is also Director of Training at the OTTC while completing her Masters in English with a specialization in Gender Studies at University of Ottawa.
