MUMBAI: The 30th Table Tennis Asian Cup 2017, with a prize money of $50,000, will be held at Ahmedabad’s The Arena by TransStadia from 15 to 17 September.
Organisers Gujarat State Table Tennis Association (GSTTA), which spent three months in preparations, say it is the biggest event hosted by it yet. GSTTA secretary Haresh Sangtani told International Business Times, “This is the biggest table tennis event in Gujarat. We are proud to host it. All top players including Olympic champions will be in action.”
“Asian Table Tennis Union (ATTU) allotted Asian Cup to TTFI in October 2016. TTFI was impressed with our organisational skills when we hosted Commonwealth Table Tennis Championship in 2015. The event was a success and was appreciated all over the world. We also conduct Nationals every year and that too is praised by one and all,” he added.
