THE STORY
BEHIND EBATT
Table tennis began in England in the late 19th century, and today that proud heritage oozes through eBaTT
Founded by Eli Baraty, eBaTT was created from a deep passion for the sport and a clear vision to make high-quality table tennis accessible to the community. After years of playing and coaching and seeing first-hand the powerful impact table tennis can have, physically, mentally, and socially, Eli established eBaTT club in 2022, as a dedicated space where people of all ages and abilities could train, develop, and compete. Through rapid growth and demand via our welcoming and positive environment, our community grew and became a part of something special. So much so that we are opening a bigger and grander table tennis centre in New Barnet.
Despite being the birthplace of table tennis, England still has relatively few dedicated specialist centres. eBaTT was set up to help bridge that gap, providing structured coaching, open play sessions, development pathways, and inclusive community programmes all under one roof.
At eBaTT, we are proud to continue England’s table tennis story, creating opportunities, building confidence, and growing the Olympic sport for future generations.
