Table Tennis England is supporting this yearâ€s NSPCC Keeping Your Child Safe in Sport campaign which runs from 6-12 October 2025.
We know that the part a parent plays in their childâ€s sport can have a big impact on their childâ€s wellbeing and how they feel about sport.
If you work directly with parents and carers within your club, league or county, you can help us to get this message out.
Weâ€re asking table tennis parents to play their part and talk to their children about how they can bring out their best through positive actions and support. We want parents to consider how they show support before, during and after sport.
The NSPCCâ€s key messages for parents are:
- The importance of listening to your child or young person
- How you are key in keeping sport fun
- How vital it is that everyone feels respected
- Reminder that if you see something, say something
Check out the video below for more on this.
Letâ€s make it easier for parents to have a conversation with their child so all children can thrive in our sport. More information is available at the Keeping Your Child Safe in Sport parents’ page.
