Ayrshire has a Scottish Champion.

Rebecca Plaistow of Garnock Valley Table Tennis has proved unstopable in recent months which culminated in her winning the Scottish National Championships Minor Girls (under 13) title at Scotsttoun Leisure Centre on Sunday 4 March. Showing better form each time she steps up to the table, Rebecca made her way to the semi finals to find Anna Liddle of Edinburgh, who had beatten Rebecca in the Primary Schools Final early in the season. Rebecca wasted no time in setting to task and made up for her early season loss to Anna to move on to the final against first seed Nadia Docherty of Glasgow. Lack of conentration and unforced errors let Nadia take a 2 game lead. A pep talk with coach, Sean Doyle, before the start of game 3 provided the motivation for Rebecca to win the next 2 games and taking the match to a 5 game decider. Both girls produced Table Tennis worthy of the National final with Rebecca edging Nadia out 12-10, leaving the court with a huge victory smile knowing she was the 2012 Scottish Champion.
