Click on country sub-forum links below for country specific posts (Some but not all countries have posts yet).
Note :- ITTF Directory says "Website not available” for websites of National Associations of most countries. it is pathetic on the part of ITTF not to have a fully functional or at least a basic National Association website ( & preferably a Facebook page) as mandatory

Table tennis expelled from 2026 Commonwealth games in Scotland

Statement of the International Table Tennis Federation on the 2026 Commonwealth Games Sports Programme

What is strange about he post at ITTF website is that ITTF has not stated the exact reason why table tennis was expelled

Thank you Scotland

Now I can only hope & pray that the UK Governemnt would ban London from holding the 2026 centenary WTTC

And my life will be complete when IOC finally expels table tennis from 2028 Los Angeles Olympics & replaces it with pole dancing, which should suit Hollywood just fine

This expulsion could possibly be due to ramapant booster misuse & abuse in TableTennis but Scotland obviously cannot openly admit to this ?
But I also hope UK cancels WTTC 2026 & IOC expels TableTennis from Olympics for good.

I hope people are working with UK Government to cancel the WTTTC 2026 in London.
I don't think England Government & London City Government understand the level of corruption in ITTF & health risks they are taking by allowing major TableTennis events in England.
