Super League (Europe)
The Superliga is a table tennis team competition in which clubs from Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia originally took part. Clubs from Croatia, Slovenia and Switzerland were added later. The competition is held as a joint top division for both women and men. Up to three teams per nation are eligible to play. All participating national associations must agree to the participation of a club.
If an Austrian team plays in the super league, but not in the Champions League , then they can also compete in the Austrian men's first division. In addition, the regional associations of Austria can also form so-called branch clubs in which a selection team competes in the super league. Such branch clubs are not eligible to play in the Bundesliga.
founding
The introduction of the Super League was decided in Pressburg in January 1993 by representatives of the table tennis associations in Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. The organization was entrusted to the Austrian table tennis association ÖTTV , namely Reinhold Luckeneder. Each of the four associations should be represented by three teams.
In 2005, teams from Croatia and Slovenia competed with Zagreb and Vrtojba, and in 2010 Switzerland was added with the women's team from Neuhausen.
The implementation regulations, such as the number of teams, have been changed several times until today.
