Watch: Ben Camille meets table tennis duo Anthea Cutajar and Sacha Pace

Table tennis duo Sacha Pace and Anthea Cutajar are the two guests of Ben Camille during this week’s edition of GAME ON.

Pace and Cutajar are two members of the Malta table tennis national team that are currently stepping up their preparations ahead of next year’s Games of the Small States of Europe that will be held in Malta.

Both Pace and Cutajar were lured to the sport having a member of their family who practised the sport.

“I started the sport thanks to my dad,” Pace said.

“I used to watch him play a lot and I fell in love with the sport and start practising table tennis. He then set up a club – Sharp Shot – and that made it easier for me to have a place to train and eventually I ended up helping in the running of the club.”

On her part, Cutajar was lured to the sport watching her sister playing the game.

“It was my sister who started playing table tennis first,” Cutajar said.

“I used to go and watch her train and then eventually played with her too and that increased my interest in the sport.

“Today, I am playing with an Italian club. Once every three or four weeks I travel to Italy for three to four days to play my matches and then I come back here to continue to train.”

During the interview Pace and Cutajar give more details on the table tennis competitions that are organised in Malta and make an appeal to any one interested in the game to start practising the sport.
