This exceptional gathering has brought together six European players: Portugal’s Tiago ABIODUN Austria’s Julian RZIHAUSCHEK Slovakia’s Damian FLORO France’s Nina GUO ZHENG Spain’s Maria BERZOSA and Portugal’s Julia LEAL. They worked under the mentorship of head coaches Zoltan BATORFI and Anamaria SEBE from the European Table Tennis Union.
