Western Masters triumph and a weekend of firsts

Emma enjoyed a memorable weekend at the Western Masters in April, clinching the title after a thrilling and high-quality final against close friend Sanja Clements. The match was a showcase of experience and determination, with both players pushing each other all the way in what turned out to be a true classic.

Earlier in the tournament, Emma also took to the table for the mixed doubles alongside Ian, a player she has been coaching for the past 18 months. It was Ian’s first taste of competitive table tennis, and he embraced the experience with energy and enthusiasm. Emma was proud to support him through his debut and loved every moment of sharing the court with someone she’s helped guide and develop.

It was a weekend of success, friendship, and new beginnings—one that perfectly captured Emma’s passion for both playing and coaching the sport.
