Fédération Royale Belge de Tennis de Table / Koninklijke Belgische Tafeltennisbond (FRBTT-KBTTB)

The table tennis federation in Belgium · Royal Belgian Table Tennis Federation

Belgian table tennis is split by language community: the Fédération Royale Belge de Tennis de Table (FRBTT-KBTTB) is the national umbrella federation, representing Belgium internationally to the ITTF/ETTU and to the Belgian Olympic Committee (COIB), but it is composed of, and operates equally through, two regional wings that actually run the sport day to day: the francophone AFTT (Aile Francophone de la FRBTT, covering Wallonia and French-speaking Brussels) and the Flemish VTTL (Vlaamse Tafeltennisliga, covering Flanders). Every Belgian club affiliates with either the AFTT or the VTTL, which run their own provincial committees, regional championships and licence administration; the FRBTT-KBTTB itself mainly handles national team selection, national rankings/records and Belgium's international representation.

Getting a licence

A licence is needed to play official table tennis competitions in Belgium.

Players affiliate through a club with either the AFTT or the VTTL depending on region/language, choosing a licence type (e.g. player/competitor vs. non-player/recreational); entry fees for competitions are set separately by each wing's regional, provincial or national committee.
