The ETTU Athletes’ Commission, which serves as the official voice of athletes within European table tennis, will welcome five newly elected members in 2025. The Commission plays a vital role in representing player interests and ensuring that athletes’ perspectives are reflected in decision-making processes across the sport.
Voting for four positions for able-bodied athletes will be open to all players participating in the 2025 European Team Championships in Zadar on 12th, 13th, and 14th October, directly at the competition venue.
Additionally, athletes from Associations that took part in Stage 1 (Sarajevo) but did not qualify for the Final Stage have already cast their votes online via a secure platform.
The top-ranked male and female athletes will automatically be elected, while the remaining two positions will go to the next highest-voted candidates regardless of gender. To ensure balanced representation, no more than one athlete per country may be elected.
The para-athlete representative will be elected separately during the 2025 European Para Championships in Helsingborg.
