ATTU Asian Table Tennis Team: Ahead of the ITTF-ATTU Asian Table Tennis Team Championships 2025, Indian team head coach Massimo Constantini expressed confidence in the team preparations saying with the renewed young sqaud he is expecting a strong performance.

“We are coming from a very important tournament and a good training camp in China over the last month. The players are well-prepared, and now we have to deploy our strategies once we know our opponents. Finishing fourth last year and winning bronze gives us a direct entry into the quarterfinals, so making a medal will depend on one crucial match,” Constantini said.

He added, “Our opponents like Japan, Korea, and Hong Kong are traditionally strong, but India is steadily gaining ground in Asia. If we perform well here, it reflects our potential to do well globally — even in the Olympics. With a renewed young squad, I expect a strong performance.”
