The project “TTX EU Format … more FUN more LIFE” organized by the Italian Table Tennis Federation as part of a European call within the ERASMUS + funding line covers education training youth and sport in Europe.
The protagonist of the activity is Table Tennis X a new fun and inclusive discipline conceived by the International Table Tennis Federation which FITeT promoted in October 2019. Italy hosted the “Roma Ping Pong Fest … a TTX Experience” at via dei Fori Imperiali in Rome which gathered over 40 000 visitors and then proposed summer tours for two consecutive years which were attended by thousands of people. TTX uses wooden rackets without rubber covers and bigger and heavier balls than table tennis and can be played by anyone regardless of technical ability and anywhere.
“TTX EU Format … more FUN more LIFE is based on the collaboration between Italy and other nine European countries which are Cyprus France Hungary Latvia Malta Poland Portugal Slovenia and Spain. The objective is to create a European format which involving young people aged 11 to 18 encourages the habit of practicing sport through the diffusion of TTX.
