The ITTF Annual General Meeting (AGM) held in Doha on Tuesday 27 May 2025 had to be suspended following the disruption initiated by individuals who were neither delegates from Member Associations, nor members of the Executive Board, Council, Committees, or invited guests.
The AGM will need to be reconvened to address the agenda items that could not be dealt with, including the election of the Executive Vice-Presidents. The current ITTF Council was elected (Executive Vice-Presidents), ratified (Continental Representatives of the ITTF Council) on 24th November 2021. Their term will therefore expire on 24th November 2025. Accordingly, the elections and ratifications of the Members must take place before this date.
