2024 QLD Hopes Junior Pathways Regional Training Camp

The International Table Tennis Federation drives a worldwide Hopes Program aimed at providing young players the opportunity to train and compete with their peers. The process starts at national level with a training camp and tournament run early in the year. Players can then be selected to follow the program at continental level and then at world level. 

The Hopes Junior Pathways Training Camps are the pathway for aspiring junior players (aged 12 and under) to be exposed to a level of training to prepare them for competition level participation at regional, state and national level. 

By providing junior players with an engaging experience early in their table tennis journey, we believe will raise the participation and performance level of Queensland representative players in the future.

Participants who are invited to participate the State Hopes training camp in January 2025 are eligible to attend the National Hopes Week & Challenge held in Victoria in April 2025 (venue location tbc).
