Upsets at the opening day of the 2024 Europe Trophy Grand Final

In the women’s event Club Pongiste Lyssois Lille Métropole CP emerged successfully at the top of their group at the end of the day. They were ranked only as the fourth club in Group A but managed to overcome Wamet Dobry Wiązar Dąbcze of Poland and SU Sparkasse Kufstein 1 of Austria in straight matches. Tomorrow’s last round will be very interesting since SU Sparkasse Kufstein 1 and STK Aquaestil both have one win and one defeat.

In Group B two clubs are unbeaten. Croatia’s Dr. ČASL and SCO Bodensdorf of Austria both beat top-seeded KTTC AFP Antwerpen 3-0 and Italy’s AD Muravera TT B 3-1.
