Jack Pegram
How did you first get involved in your sport?
I always loved all sports so I tried everything when I was very young. I came across table tennis when I went to the National Junior Games at Stoke Mandeville and gave it a go and liked it.
What does a typical week look like for you?
I manage attending University, working and my training. I have to fit training in around my uni work, including GB Development camps which are in Sheffield, so it's difficult to manage my uni deadlines.
I also play table tennis for the 1st team of my University, and in the BUCS League.
What are your targets for the next 12 months?
Improve my UK ranking (currently 4th, Senior Mens), play for GB internationally and retain my place in the GB
Development Squad.
