Former Caribbean Table Tennis champion, Chelsea Edghill is still contemplating the level of her participation in upcoming international events in 2021 due to the continued threats of COVID-19. 

The young athlete, who is currently in Portugal, representing the Lusitania de Lourosa FC Table Tennis club, revealed to Stabroek Sport that a return to top-level tennis would invoke a satisfying emotion. However, she noted that her immediate focus surrounds her assignments in her Portuguese outfit. 

“My focus for 2021 firstly is to stay healthy in order to continue the league and to play at a high level. As it pertains to competing [internationally], I’m not sure due to Covid-19, but surely it would be great to return to playing the pro-tours and also the World Championships,” the Caribbean under – 13 and under-21 champion told this publication.
