In the academic year 2025-26, our very own Table tennis team of Under 14
(Irene Gabriella George, Aarushi, Harini), Under 17 (Saanvika, Nandini Majge,
Shaarvi G Rohit, Hanshika Pandian) and Under 19 (Bhavika D Tandle, Arya
Hari Prakash, Delisha D, Jia B, Mihika Tak) shone brightly in the recent zonal
championships held in July 2025. With sheer grit and skillful play, they
dominated the CISCE Table Tennis Tournament, displaying outstanding
discipline and talent. From the Under 19 category, Bhavika D Tandle and
Mihika Tak earned their spots in the Karnataka and Goa regional team
through impressive performances. In the Under 17 Category, Saanvika and
Shaarvi G Rohit qualified for the Karnataka and Goa Regional team with flying
colors. Similarly, from the Under 14 category, Irene and Harini qualified for the
Karnataka and Goa Regional team. The players truly showcased their talent
against tough rivals.
The regionals, hosted at Little Flower Public School on 31st July 2025, proved
to be another stage for glory. Without a dedicated coach, we practiced
amongst ourselves and with our parents, honing our strokes and skills. We
were Accompanied by our PE teacher, Mr. Isaac, who was with us throughout.
In the Regionals matches, Bhavika and Mihika clinched a proud second place
in Under 19. Meanwhile, Saanvika and Shaarvi triumphed with first place in
Under 17. These victories stand as a testament to our self-reliance and
unyielding spirit.
We owe immense gratitude to the pillars behind this success. Principal Sister
Alpana, your encouragement and permission to pursue our passion meant the
world! Mr. Isaac Solomon S, thank you for being there and guiding us beyond
the court. And a big Thank you to our parents who were with us through thick
and thin.
As we celebrate these feats, we encourge future batches to aim higher, train
harder, reach the nationals again and go beyond any boundary that holds
them back. With the same belief and dedication, our school's table tennis
legacy will only grow stronger, one paddle stroke at a time.
