Britain’s oldest ping pong player is still batting off the competition and beating opponents 30 years his junior - at the age of 92.

Retired tool maker Ivan Pedley plays table tennis twice a week and says he has no plans to retire from the game he loves.

The grandad-of-three first took up the paddle sport as a 14-year-old boy in 1947 and is still going strong 78 years on.

The energetic pensioner plays around 14 games a week at Great Wyrley Table Tennis Club in Staffordshire, UK often against opponents much younger.
