Congratulations to Australian Army veteran Verity Sanchez and the competitors who represented Australia in the table tennis at the Invictus Games Dusseldorf 2023.

Verity recently started playing table tennis to help her manage pain associated with injuries, and this week she won a silver medal in the singles event.

“Sport has reduced my pain, it’s given me connection in the community again and it’s shown me a whole new sport in table tennis, which is fantastic fun," Verity said.

She is now taking the next step in her table tennis journey and is looking forward to experiencing the social and physical benefits of the sport.

“I’ve just joined my local competition for table tennis so I’m really looking forward to getting out for my local club and having a hit and a giggle Monday and Wednesday nights,” she said.
