Recently Mary launched a book- Table Tennis in Canberra and Region- a History, written by Mr Arthur Wilks, a long-time resident of Canberra and a keen sport-person.

“As a published poet myself, I congratulate Arthur for writing this book,” Mary said.

“It is not only a fascinating read, but it also ensures that some of the intriguing stories of Canberra are preserved.

“Arthur is a long-time friend and has had many passions over the years, including sport, such as cricket and bocchi. However, the sport that has been his greatest passion is table tennis,” Mary stated
