April gives us a chance to look back at March a month globally dedicated to women’s rights. In European Table Tennis it was an active month with some great steps towards making the sport more inclusive for women.
The Swedish Table Tennis Association led by example unveiling its Female Development Strategy for the period of 2024-2028 displaying the association’s commitment to gender equity and serving as an inspirational model for others while in Denmark the National Championships introduced a “Drop in” area specifically designed for women fostering an inclusive and supportive environment. This initiative part of the GAP Women Project underscored the importance of community and belonging inviting more women to engage with and enjoy table tennis in a welcoming setting.
Moreover the ETTU joined ITTF on the “My Gender. My Strength.” project offering two spots to European coaches. This project aims to empower women through coaching highlighting the significant role coaches play in inspiring athletes and promoting gender equality. The deadline is set for April 16th.
