You put the things in the wrong order:

1. put a group around some LaTeX commands
2. add the macro \scriptsize in it

Hence:

#+begin_src org
  #+begin_latex
  {\scriptsize
  #+end_latex

  |org|table|here|

  #+begin_latex
  }
  #+end_latex
#+end_src

should do it (not tested).

Best regards,
  Seb
