The club will receive 7 new Stiga Expert Roller tables and 73 packages of Stiga Orange 3 Star Balls, along with four Stiga Banners. In addition, the name of our club will now be THE LAKELAND TABLE TENNIS CLUB SPONSORED BY STIGA, upon approval of the contract by the sponsor. We look forward to our association with Stiga. Four of our current five tables are Stiga, with an additional table to be added this next Friday, which is also a Stiga.
We thank Stiga for sponsoring our club and to Paddle Palace for their assistance with this significant addition to our club.
