Trinidad and Tobago’s France-based professional table tennis players, Dexter St Louis and Rheann Chung played unbeaten for their respective clubs in successful league outings, recently.

St Louis won twice for Agen in a comfortable 8-2 triumph over Fouesnant. The five-time Caribbean men’s singles champion defeated Gregory Laloue to earn Agen a 2-1 lead in the contest, and was back on the table five matches later, beating Mandimbisio Rakotozafy to send his team 6-2 ahead.

Chung won three times in singles and once in doubles to steer Poitiers to an 8-6 victory over Murs Erigne in a women’s team showdown.

In the opening contest, Chung got the better of Laurane Renard 11-9, 11-6, 9-11, 11-4. The five-time Caribbean women’s singles champion then whipped Karine Ploquin at 1, 5 and 4 to make it 4-1 in favour of Poitiers.

Murs Erigne battled back, levelling the fixture at four wins apiece. But Chung and Marion Remaud turned around a one-game deficit to beat Ploquin and Julie Clerivet in the first of two doubles clashes. Murs Erigne won the second doubles contest, and the teams were back on level terms.

Chung made it 6-5 for Poitiers with an 11-8, 11-4, 11-9 success against Lucille Carrere. Renard then won for Murs Erigne. 6-6. However, Marie Grimaud and Pauline Piesset triumphed in the last two singles duels, and Poitiers earned full points.
