Guyana women’s table tennis team, last evening, secured a silver medal finish in the 2019 Caribbean Regional Table Tennis Federation (CRTTF) senior championship at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall (CASH). 

 The local ladies comprising Trenace Low, Natalie Cummings, Chelsea Edghill and Jody Ann-Blake were unlucky in their bid to get pass their adversaries from the Dominica Republic and lost 1-3 in their final round robin match, to settle for a gutsy second-place finish. 

 Both teams went into the match undefeated but it was Guyana who were first to establish their will to take the title when Edghill and Low continued their success over Yasiris Ortiz and Esmerlyn Castro in the doubles match-up by taking it 6-11, 11-9, 7-11, 13-11, 12-10.
