Joining the youth competition?
Guus Korper sent the participants in the HTC entry-level tournament an email about participating in the youth competition.
This may also be of interest to other young players, so here is a copy:
Dear children and parents of the participants of the HTC beginner tournament,
🏓 HTC Beginner Tournament: A Great Start!
The beginner tournament at HTC has finished – and it was a big success! For many young players from TTV Amstelveen, it was their first real experience playing matches against players from other clubs.
Was it exciting? Yes. Was it fun? Definitely!
We saw a lot of happy faces and great enthusiasm also from the parents
Some players clearly want more, and that’s perfect… because we are still looking for players to join the competition starting in January!
🔍 What’s the difference between competition and a tournament?
Many parents and players mix these up, so here’s a simple explanation.
📅 Youth Competition – playing as a team
- You play in a team for TTV Amstelveen.
- The competition runs from mid-January to mid-April (around 8–10 weeks).
- Matches are on Saturdays, sometimes in our own hall and sometimes at other clubs in the North Holland region.
- You play 2 vs 2 (starter level) or 3 vs 3 (regular level).
- Teams are made so that players compete against opponents of similar strength.
- You don’t have to play every week because teams often have extra players.
- Parents are sometimes asked to help with transport or supervision, especially for away matches.
- The competition fee is €21 per half-year this is for the Dutch Table Tennis Federation, not for the club
👉 Competition is great to gain match experience, learn teamwork, and grow at a steady pace.
🏆 Youth Tournaments – all in one day
- A tournament usually lasts one day (often Sunday).
- Players register individually, sometimes also for doubles.
- You play several matches in a row.
- Players are grouped by age or skill level.
- Club supervision may be available but is less structured than during competition.
👉 Tournaments are ideal for players who want extra challenge and enjoy playing many matches in one day.
📢 Important right now
The competition starts in January, and we must register our teams with the NTTB (Dutch Table Tennis Federation) by 5 December at the latest. Yes, that’s very soon!
📞 Who would like to join the competition from January onwards?
Interested or want more information?
📩 Email: jeugd@ttvamstelveen.nl (as soon as possible)
📞 Prefer a quick call (due to limited time)? Call: +31 6 20620000 (Guus)
Please include the name of the youth player in your email.
🎉 Want to join?
For many players, the tournament was the first step.
Competition can be the next one.
Learning together, playing together, and most of all… having fun together!
We look forward to forming new youth teams for the competition. Hopefully with you included!
Best sporting regards,
TTV Amstelveen Youth Committee
Guus Korper
Update by the match secretary
In this update our match secretary Alex Brandt lets us know the latest standings in the competition.
Also an urgent request to inform him of any changes of your participation in the competition:
are you keen to join the spring competition or are you now participating and would like to stop?
The club does not rent out tables!
People sometimes want to hire a table from our club to play for an hour or an evening.
This is not possible because the playing facilities are for our members only.
Tournaments !
Lina and Elisa scored excellently in the youth ranking tournament in Tilburg: see this post.
But there are also plenty of opportunities for others to play in tournaments.
At the moment, there are 18 tournaments on the tournament list up to and including January.
What is the provisional result for 2025?!
Check out the Grote Clubactie page to see how we tackled this.

Amstelveen Open 2025: hot but a big success !
TTV Amstelveen Open 2025 a great success despite the heat
Saturday 21 June saw over 130 boys and girls play table tennis in the 3rd edition of this tournament at the new Bankrashal in Amstelveen. In the warmest weekend so far this year, the entire hall was packed with no fewer than 24 table tennis tables. From 09.30 in the morning, six singles classes were played and four doubles in the afternoon. It was a fanatical but sporty affair, with many great rallies, especially in the highest class. At almost half past seven in the evening, the last ball was hit, after which a 1st and a 2nd prize were awarded for each class at the prize-giving ceremony.
Sunday 22 June it was the turn of over 130 ladies and men to also try to win a prize in 6 singles and 4 doubles classes. Here, too, there was much competition and exciting matches that more than regularly needed all five games to come to a winner. The singles finals started at quarter to seven and once again all prizes were awarded at half past seven. Super nice also that TTV Amstelveen could hold up the challenge cup for clubs for the second time.
A super successful tournament, partly thanks to the many nice reactions from participants and parents/guardians.
Thanks to everyone and especially to our volunteers and hopefully we will see you next year.
You can find the results and the photos via/on the tournament page!
Champions Spring competition 2025
The season has come to an end — and what a season it was!
We enjoyed thrilling matches, fantastic results, and above all, an incredible amount of fun.
Two senior teams were crowned champions, two teams unfortunately faced relegation, and among the youth teams, two also managed to lift the championship trophy.
Senior Team 1
On the very last match day, Team 1 secured the championship in the 3rd Division! Despite missing Ricardo, who was sidelined all season due to injury, Arjan, Ryan, Kaustav, Ali, and Harish (with substitutes Brian and Keisuke) proved to be a powerhouse.
They left the highly rated Hilversum team far behind with little difficulty.
Next season, “the First” will take on the challenge of competing in the 2nd Division for the first time in years. They will be reinforced by the return of Brian van den Heuvel — a major boost for the team!
Senior Team 6
Team 6 also clinched the title on the final day!
By sending Het Nootwheer home with a convincing 10–0 victory, they kept direct rival TSO at bay.
A special mention for Micha, who impressively won 20 out of his 22 matches! Atie, Paul, and Jo each won about half of their matches and many doubles as well.
Next year, the 3rd class will pose a serious challenge, but thanks to the training sessions led by John Scott and Ladislav Prorok, the team’s upward trend is clearly visible.
Youth Team 2
What more can we say about Elisa, Dimana, Pengyu, and Pengxuan? They are almost unbeatable! Once again this season, they became champions with a wide lead.
Dimana won 23 out of her 24 matches, Elisa (who keeps getting stronger) won 20 out of 24, and Pengyu and Pengxuan together secured 36 wins out of 45 matches.
Week after week, they swept their opponents off the table. Next season they will move up to the 2nd — or maybe even the 1st — class. And Team 2 will once again aim for the championship there!
Youth Team 4
Team 4 kept us all on the edge of our seats!
Yichen, Roy, Sebastiaan, and Jonathan started strong with three solid victories but suffered a tough loss against their main rival, TTV Amsterdam. This only fueled their fighting spirit, and from that point on, they remained undefeated.
On the final match day, they managed to edge out Amsterdam by the narrowest of margins.
Next season they will promote to the 4th class, and if they continue their development, they will certainly have a strong shot at another championship!
