About Us

Stephen Jenkins Sports Agency was founded by Stephen Jenkins, the Welsh Table Tennis Internationalist and two times Commonwealth medallist.

The vision for the sports agency is to provide inspirational and highly qualified sports coaches to the local community, supporting and encouraging both children and adults of all ages and abilities.

Sport can be a powerful and positive influence in our communities, impacting upon factors such as child and youth development, crime prevention, education, social inclusion, health and well-being, and raising aspirations and achievements.

Stephen Jenkins Sports Agency specialises in Table Tennis coaching, but can also provide coaches for all sports, to primary and secondary schools, special needs schools, Pupil Referral Units, Universities, Leisure Centres, independent schools, local authorities and charities. In addition, Stephen Jenkins Sports Agency specialises in half-term and summer programmes, exhibitions and one–to–one coaching.
