01 The mission

Putting the game back where it belongs.

In the 1970s and 80s, table tennis was commonly seen playing in every street in Lagos as a household game. The reverse is the case today.

Value Sports One develops sport from the grassroots — specialising in table tennis development and equipment. Through our Table Tennis Education Programme we provide free tables, rackets, balls and assign a coach to interested schools gearing up for the School League. (Terms and conditions apply.)
