The Nigeria Table Tennis Federation has announced that the 2025 U-12 National Hopes Week will take place from April 2 to 8 at the Training Hall of the National Stadium, Surulere, Lagos.

NTTF’s National Hopes Week aims to discover and nurture young table tennis talents from across the country, with the best U-12 players from various states and regions converging in Lagos for an intensive training camp.

According to the body, selected ITTF-certified coaches will guide the young athletes, introducing them to new techniques and tactics in table tennis.

The event is designed to provide a platform for young players to showcase their skills, gain valuable experience, and develop their game in preparation for continental and World Hopes Week.
