ITTF LARC new rubbers as of April 1 2026 : confusing new process

Post by Tarlese »

To continue its long tradition of thoroughly confusing players , ITTF has a new process for its Click link > ITTF LARC
They no longer release a new list in January , April , July and October

They now approve and de-approve rubbers at will any day
If a rubber has been de-approved you have no way of knowing
Yes it has expiry date for any rubbers that may be de-approved but since some rubbers get re-approved when they hit the de-approval date , theer is no way of knowing what happened.
Totally confusing, ill-conceived poorly thought out process

Anyway for whatever it is worth, attached is a list of newly approved rubbers
Again I do not know new as of when because there were 1698 rubbers on January 1 , 2026 and now there are 1712 rubbers
