It was an exciting meeting of the inaugural Table Tennis competition between the Old Boys and the School. After concessions were made for players without their own bats, all four of the Old Boys played all four of the schoolboys; 16 matches in total. 

It was the first to 21 points in each match, with sudden death at 20 all. Every player recorded the number of games they won on a whiteboard. The Old Boys showed that experience prevails over the exuberance of youth, winning 11 of the 16 matches in what was a very enjoyable morning. 

The Cramp Powell cup was presented to the Old Boys after the match and Ken Powell (OKG61) spoke to the gathering regarding his positive experience at Knox, before wishing everyone well.

The extremely talented Knox coach, Guy Fainbloom, stayed around at the end and had a much appreciated hit with the remaining Old Boys.
