Declaration about requests for ITHF membership
The Executive Committee has received two requests for the ITHF membership: from Pakistan and from Ukraine.
Both requests have fulfilled the conditions set by the valid version of the ITHF Constitution. This is why the Delegates’ Conference has to decide both requests.
Situation in Pakistan
The Executive Committee has not any information about any table hockey tournaments organized in Pakistan. The only known table hockey activity from Pakistan was sending the English translation of the constitution to the Executive Committee of the ITHF.
Situation in Ukraine
There
is the National championship consisting of 5 stages taking place in 3 cities: Crimea, Kiev and Odessa. There are also the local
championships in the cities where the table hockey life is active.
There was a National tournament for pupils organized by international magazine
for kids "Poznaiko", with support of the Ukrainian federation; it took
place in all regional centers.
The first Team/Club tournament with also foreign teams participating was
organized in May 2006.
Promo tournaments take place in different cities. This helps to attract new
players from those cities to the National championship.
The Ukrainian Federation also cooperates with different companies to attract them
as sponsors and also continues to cooperate with the governmental agency
(working under The Ministry of Youth and Sport) "Sport for all".
