Fakel-Gazprom Orenburg and KTS Enea Siarka Tarnobrzeg leads the Clubs seedings list

Fakel-Gazprom Orenburg of Russia and KTS Enea Siarka Tarnobrzeg of Poland are the leading clubs at the respective Men’s and Women’s seedings list in the 2020-2021 European Club Competitions.

The results of the clubs from the last 3 European Club Competitions’ seasons will be used for the 2020-2021 European Club Competition’ seeding.

Result points allocation: from the 2017-2018 season 20% 2018-2019 season 30% and 2019-2020 season 50%. Points for the clubs having reached the Semi-Finals in the 2019-2020 season (and not played due cancellation) received average sum of points for the Winner Runner-up and Semi-Finalist.

In case of equality in total points for clubs in important positions at the seeding the most recent result will decide if equal the result in the previous season if still equal the result in the season before that. If still equal a draw will be done.

Limitation of teams per national Association for TTCL is 3 and for ECLW is 3. Note which starts with the 2021-2022 season and not in the coming season 2020-2021:

The Europe Cup winner from the current season is directly qualified for Champions League of the coming season. (not possible for 2020-2021 season as the 2019-2020 season has been cancelled at Semi-Final stage but will be for the 2021-2022 season). Starting with the 2021-2022 season only results from the previous season will count for ranking.

In a first phase clubs are asked to fill in a preliminary entry form (deadline 29th May 2020). The preliminary entry registration is not mandatory but strongly recommended as it allows ETTU to better analyse and prepare the 2020-2021 season. You can find entery lists here https://www.ettu.org/en/events/european-champions-league-women/regulations—documents/ and here https://www.ettu.org/en/events/table-tennis-champions-league-men/regulations—documents/ .

In a second phase clubs can register their club (provisional deadline 9th July 2020). As the seeding is made by club ranking and no more by their players’ ranking the players are registered at a later stage (phase 3 – provisional deadline 3rd September 2020).

ETTU indroduces the new competition – Europe Trophy Men and Women 2020-2021. That is the Regional competition (3rd level competition) to start in 2021 with less obligations to the clubs and played regional. More information on Europe Trophy available within short.
