OOAK Table Tennis Forum

I know bit early to talk about 2024 Veterans, but does anyone know when they will decide where the 2024 World Veteran's Championship will be held? My dad is keen to enter

Will be decided at AGM-2022 in November or December 2022 according to
https://www.ittf.com/2022/06/15/ittf-received-record-number-bids-host-senior-youth-veteran-world-championships/

Looks like AGMs will no longer be held during WTTCs, since I think the team WTTC (WTTTC) will be held in China in September 2022 ?

In the above webpage it says ITTF has taken over the management of WVC starting 2024. So it looks like it is managed by Scholer's Swaythyling Committee till 2023 , the WVC-2023 event in Oman.

However I read in German TT News forum that Dr.Neubauer may be starting his own competing World Veterans Championships with different sets of rules outside ITTF because the long standing feud between Scholer & Dr.Neubauer (both equipment dealer / manufacturers in Germany) is now well known to table tennis public. I am not sure if there may have been lots of complaints about conflict of interest of Scholer having been on ITTF Equipment Committee of all places (but amazingly he got promoted to vice-president of ITTF after that) & it looks like he is no longer on ITTF , if I am not mistaken. Conflict of interest is nothing new in IOC (in tabletennis as well as in other sports) & ITTF with last two being Adham Sharara (who was actually convicted by ITTF itself a few years ago) & Igor Levitin. Nothing wrong with tabletennis people being on IOC or national committees but doing so at the same time raises serious conflict of interest issues.

Thanks, I was wondering when the AGM would be, so I guess there will be no schedule until around Xmas, ok, thanks

You are correct.

AGM 2022 will be held sometime between the 15th of November and the 15th of December 2022, according to
https://www.ittf.com/2022-ittf-annual-general-meeting/

It was stated somewhere else (but cleverly not in above document) that deadline for the submission of propositions & resolutions is 3 months before AGM. But I do not see a list of propositions or resolutions anywhere (It is almost submission deadline).

All the past propositions or resolutions seem to be kept secret & disappear quickly

The World Veterans 2024 was announced yesterday at the ITTF summit and will be hosted in Rome!

Can't find any official announcement yet, but seen multiple facebook posts about it

Rome is nice indeed. Now, the most important question - when can we register?
