High hopes in Hong Kong
David, Paralympic Table Tennis player
The opportunity to come on the Paralympic Table Tennis preparation camp in Hong Kong with fellow sportspeople has been great for me.I still have to qualify for Beijing yet, but this camp has been good preparation for the qualification process and a chance




The atmosphere at the camp has been really good – relaxed and enjoyable - and it's been fantastic meeting the guys from the other squads, as I’ve never really had the opportunity to spend time with athletes from other sports.

The Table Tennis team challenged the Boccia squad to a game of Boccia yesterday, which was good fun and shows how well everyone is getting on. The Boccia team won, but our guys gave them a good run for their money.

I’m not sure what to expect with the London Games in 2012. I think it will be great competing in front of a home crowd, as well as giving us a real sense of pride, but I imagine there will be a bit of pressure too. I've never played an international competition in England before, so it will be a great experience.
