In an initiative launched by the Premier League and Fred Perry that has seen 100,000 girls and boys aged 11-14 try table tennis over the past three months, the four youngsters had reached the final 80 competitors in the country.
Emily and Sarah said: "We had never played Table Tennis before the Premier League 4 Sport Project so to get to an event like this and play against all other clubs is something we never thought would have happened."
For the boys' title, Blackburn Rovers edged out Manchester United and in the girls' division, Portsmouth took first place, with Manchester United finishing second. In the overall combined boys and girls table, however, the Manchester United quartet were victorious and took home the Fred Perry Urban Cup.
incredible achievement
The Fred Perry Urban Cup, led by iconic sports fashion label Fred Perry in partnership with the Premier League 4 Sport (PL4S) programme, the English Table Tennis Association (ETTA) and Sport England's Sportsmatch initiative, saw all 20 Premier League clubs link with regional table tennis community clubs to encourage and inspire youngsters to get involved in table tennis.
More than100,000 youngsters aged 11-14 across the country were given the chance to try their hand at the sport over the past three months, with four youngsters from each Premier League club - two girls and two boys - qualifying to represent their team at the Urban Cup finals.
Richard Martin, Head of Global Marketing at Fred Perry, said: "The Fred Perry Urban Cup has proven to be an enormous success in previous years, but with the new association with the Premier League now in place we have been able to take the competition to the next level. Engaging over 100,000 youngsters with the scheme this year is an incredible achievement."
Watching the action unfold and mentoring the youngsters on Saturday was 20 year-old English international table tennis star Darius Knight.
Darius said: "I was amazed at some of the table tennis talent on show on Saturday at the Fred Perry Urban Cup finals. Congratulations to all of the boys and girls who qualified for the finals. It's great to see so many kids being given the chance to play the sport that I love; if they keep at it they might find themselves playing for England one day too."
