A 3-0 margin of victory was the order of the day for Cuba in the men’s team final; a closely fought doubles success for Jorge Campos and Livan Martinez against Nicolas Burgos and Manuel Moya (8-11, 10-12, 11-3, 12-10, 11-3) set the final in motion.

The impetus with Cuba, Andy Pereira beat Andres Martinez (11-8, 11-3, 11-7), before Jorge Campos defeated Manuel Moya to conclude matters (11-3, 11-7, 11-8).

Success in style for Cuba, for Chile in the counterpart women’s team final that success was hard earned; a 3-2 win against Colombia was the outcome. Star of the show for Chile was Daniela Ortega. She accounted for both Paula Medina (14-12, 6-11, 11-9, 6-11, 11-3) and in the vital fifth and deciding match of the fixture, Maria Perdomo (11-2, 11-1, 4-11, 7-11, 11-8).

Notably, the one further success for Chile was recorded in the third match of the fixture when Paulina Vega beat Correy Tellez. The wins for Colombia were recorded in the opening doubles by Maria Perdomo and Cory Tellez against Judith Morales and Paulina Vega (11-9, 6-11, 11-4, 5-11, 11-5) and later in the fourth match of the engagement by Paula Medina in opposition to Judith Morales (11-6, 11-7, 11-7).

Meanwhile, behind the scenes the General Assembly of the Latin American Union took place. The Dominican Republic’s Juan Vila was re-elected President, Colombia’s Pedro Uribe Deputy President. Ecuador’s Paul Calle succeeds Guatemala’s Jorge Herrera as Treasurer, Jorge Herera being appointed recently the ITTF Regional Director for Latin America.

“The assembly, as everyone could appreciate, was an opportunity for each of the participants to communicate in freedom. It was a true expression of democracy; it makes the Latin America Table Tennis Union family stronger.” Juan Vila

Hosts were agreed for the continental tournaments in 2020. The Under 11 and Under 13 Latin American Championships and South American Championships in the same age groups will be staged in Cuenca, Ecuador; the Latin American Cadet Championships in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Meanwhile, Veteran Championships will be hosted in San José, Costa Rica. The Latin American Championships  will be held in Lima, Peru, who will also host a team qualification for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

Appropriately a moment of silence was held in memory of Trinidad and Tobago’s Dexter St. Louis.
