The chairman of Table Tennis Scotland, David Clifford, believes the organisers of the World Corporate Games may have to revise their rules.

The 18 table tennis events at Aberdeen last weekend largely attracted experienced league players, rather than the hoped for recreational players, and Clifford, who helped administer the table tennis competitions, felt this had an impact on the various competitions and the Games' rules.

''The Games are a wonderful opportunity for all sports to come together under a world banner, but the format for table tennis is more suited to recreational players,'' said Clifford, ''rather than the experienced players who entered.

''Perhaps it would have been better to run the competitions along standard tournament lines.''

Clifford has put this point to the organisers. Many of the sports were not looked after at the Games by their national Scottish body, which to some extent was a disadvantage.

The Scottish Table Tennis Association has appointed a new director of administration, Margaret Prentice, currently an official of the Scottish Schools Association.

Prentice, who helped organise the Commonwealth championships in Glasgow in 1997, has a long association with table tennis, stemming from her days in Bowhouse in the former Fife League. She is both an industrious and efficient administrator whose skills will be of value to the national association.

Meanwhile, the Schools Association are ''over the moon'', following their boys under-16 team title win at the British Schools champion-ships, where Gavin Rumgay and Glynn Eggar triumphed in their crunch game against England.

Rumgay also won his individual event, coming from behind to beat England's Dominic Hall by two sets to one.

Scotland also won the under-16 boys' and under-14 girls' consolation events through brother and sister duo, Glynn and Karin Eggar, from Edinburgh.
