Around 50 people from as far afield as Hamilton took part in the Northland Open Table Tennis Championships, in Whangārei at the weekend.
Northland Table Tennis chairman Simon Standing said the two-day tournament went really well, with another 20-odd junior players taking part too.
Standing said there was a very high standard of play on show, with some very close games.
He said the standard of play among the juniors was exceptional this year too.
Northern Advocate photographer Michael Cunningham went along to keep his eye on the ball.
