RCC RAMADHAN CUP

By: Kasmono Monex, a fan of healthy living

To maintain friendship between table tennis players at the grassroots, Singgih Yehezkiel in collaboration with RCC Cikarang West Java Sports Center held a tournament entitled RCC Ramadhan Cup on May 1 2021,

The RCC Ramadhan Cup tournament begins with a prayer together. Even though it is titled Ramadhan Cup, the prayer reading is carried out by the ustad and the priest alternately. Joint prayers are expected for the advancement of national table tennis regardless of differences. Religious tolerance exemplifies communal cohesiveness.

Currently there are three management bodies in PTMSI. With the existence of three PTMSI management, the fate of players from beginners, cadets to seniors seems to have no direction.

In his remarks, Singgih Ezekiel conveyed a moral message addressed to the President to be willing to mediate in resolving the crisis within PTMSI.

Previously, Singgih and several Indonesian table tennis activists had also sent an open letter to the President, but until now the government, through the Ministry of Youth and Sport, has received no response.

Closing his remarks, Singgih hoped that PTMSI's management trialism would soon find the best solution with the President's intervention, in this case the government through the Ministry of Youth and Sport so that the fate of table tennis players and people would be excited again.

Exactly at 19.00 WIB the match started. Competing Division 4, 5, 6 and 7 took place at GOR RCC Cikarang, Bekasi district and was attended by 54 of the best players presenting quality games. These players include those from Bekasi, Jakarta, Bandung, Garut, Tegal, Purwodadi and their surroundings.
