I trust everyone is gearing up for the upcoming College Table Tennis season or perhaps has already started their season. It is always an exciting time for College Table Tennis in the United States and for some Canadian schools!  ACUI will be continuing to offer Table Tennis singles to Colleges and Universities via the Regional and International tournaments. Please check:     http://www.usatt.org/ for information on where your ACUI Regional tournament is being placed.   We look forward to a great season for ACUI Table Tennis with the continued help of USATT and the National Collegiate Table Tennis Association (NCTTA).

The 2007 ACUI Table Tennis Championships will be played at The Ohio State University in Columbus , Ohio from March 29th to April 1st.  Mark your calendars for this one!

NCTTA Table Tennis - The National College Table Tennis Association

The National Collegiate Table Tennis Association (NCTTA) is a government-recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to promoting competitive table tennis at the collegiate level in the US and Canada. The NCTTA works with the USA Table Tennis Association to further progress in College Table Tennis. NCTTA also provides assistance and leadership in implementing College/University Table Tennis programs, securing the opportunity for student-athletes to compete in the sport of Table Tennis in schools and achieve athletic and academic excellence. NCTTA maintains the eligibility and integrity of intercollegiate Table Tennis while providing the regulation of Varsity Table Tennis at the Collegiate Level in North America . NCTTA stands to meet the challenge of promoting one of the least developed collegiate sports by actively increasing its membership, competitive level of play, and professionalism. NCTTA works to promote both recreational and intercollegiate Table Tennis on college campuses. Our ultimate goal is to promote serious amateur sport competition among collegiate table tennis athletes and schools most specifically in the area of women's table tennis where the NCAA has currently created an impetus for such a program.   NCTTA affiliated schools offer their players an opportunity to be on a team, represent their school, and compete in a sport they enjoy. By actively seeking to increase our membership, competitive level of play, and professionalism as an intercollegiate table tennis organization, NCTTA continues to work toward establishing table tennis as a recognized sport among collegians.

Currently, NCTTA has an exclusive equipment sponsorship with the Table Tennis Pioneers, a leading North American supplier of top quality table tennis equipment. NCTTA members can enjoy tremendous discounts when ordering from the Table Tennis Pioneer (for details, please see our "Member Benefits" page). NEWGY Industries also is a central sponsor for NCTTA's National tournament and can be located at www.newgy.com.  NCTTA is eager to receive any partnership proposals from businesses outside of table tennis. Since NCTTA is a publicly supported 501 c 3 organization, we also welcome any private donations made by individuals and corporations. Please contact us at vicepresident@nctta.org.
