The Guyana Table Tennis Association (GTTA) yesterday announced a squad which will contest the 2019 Caribbean Junior and Cadet Table Tennis Championships slated for Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic during April 11-18, 2019. The squad was shortlisted following the conclusion of the recently held National Junior Table Tennis Championships.

Headlining the squad is young sensation Jonathan Van Lange who captured both the boys under 15 and 18 titles at the recently held nationals.

The squad also includes former Caribbean champion Kaysan Ninvalle, who, along with Van Lange, captured silver in the doubles category in last year’s edition of the Caribbean games.
