On Saturday, May 23, 2026, the three-court hall at Schiller School in Zella-Mehlis will be entirely dedicated to fast play, precise placement, and the unique excitement of a nationally open invitation tournament. From 09:00 a.m., ambitious players will meet for the 43rd Table Tennis City Championship, an event that is not TTR-relevant, but still promises a lot of sports appeal.
A tournament with tradition and competitive fever
The city of Zella-Mehlis is hosting the event, with TTC Zella-Mehlis e.V. responsible for the execution. With 15 Butterfly tables and Andro Speedball 40+ balls, the conditions are clearly geared towards performance and speed.

Precision, pressing at the table, and mental strength
Whoever goes to the table in Zella-Mehlis needs more than just technique. Short serves, aggressive first attacks, secure returns, and quick switching between control and risk shape the character of such an invitation tournament. Especially in the knockout system, every point counts double, while in the preliminary round, group phase and game rhythm decide the further path.
