Through online interactions with ITTF Experts and Participation Officers, MAs were able to increase their capabilities and pool of knowledge in certain areas of table tennis development. In 2022, the offer to MAs has been enhanced with new diversified content, an expanded menu of online services and exciting incentives by new and existing partners.
“With the first edition of the Participation Program we were able to not only service our Member Associations better, but to identify their existing needs and target them even better by creating three new services in the areas of Gender Balance, Good Governance and Talent Identification and offering more opportunities to cooperate with our partners in the fields of match analysis, event management and creating urban table tennis communities, thereby expanding the reach of global table tennis development.” – Yelena Druzhkova, ITTF Head of Participation.
Starting from 2022, every Member Association (MA) will benefit from one incentive annually during the next three years. Their allocation will be based on rotation, MA category, pro-activity principles and responsiveness in the previous year. The 2022 program package support includes:
- ITTF Online Services
- National Project
- MA Onsite Activity with assigned ITTF expert.
In connection with the Participation Program partners Pingprofy, Stupa Analytics and StreetTT, MAs will be able to enrich their national on-site projects with offering such as online education, match analysis powered by Artificial Intelligence, event management, and building urban table tennis community through play on publicly accessible tables.
The hybrid model of online and on-site activities and engagement has proven a success, and we are excited to see what 2022 will bring to the (table tennis) table in Member Associations around the world.
